"Back ordered, estimated mid-Jan."

Don't know if that means they just ran out, or if they are getting more?

Engine is imported/distributed by HPI (out of the hands of Hobbico).


I guess it basically comes down to whether or not HPI is having more made or discontinuing the engine.

I have one of these hara's that I am selling, I just have too many engines, but I paid close to full boat for it. Around 1.5-2 gallons through it, It was a back up engine.

I am able to run a 10 min main without a pit stop with these engines.

PM me if interested.

When putting the head button back on does it matter which direction the dot faces?

The dot is so the orientation of the head buttons CC stays the same each time it is removed and installed.

It should go toward the exhaust.

Is is possible to use a Novarossi front bearing on the XZ? Or does the wider inner race cause problems making the shaft too short?

I`m asking because I like the idea of double dust shield in the front bearing...

I have been running the nova double seal front bearing in my xzb speed and ninja for over 5 gallons I run that bearing in every engine I run.

The oil port on the rod faces toward the front of the engine or toward the rear bearing. I am 95% sure they are the same rod!
