    You know, you might be on to something there. One of my motorcycles is an oil burner - it's a known issue - Yamaha bored the cylinders slightly oval - whoops! This makes for lots of blow-by so I use Rotella to keep things as clean as possible - especially the rings - stuck rings would only make the situation worse. That's right - diesel spec oil in a 12,000 rpm engine. Well one day I got a wild hair up my *** and decided to try Mobil 1. My oil burn rate went up 500%. So back to Rotella I went! Oil consumption went down to normal. Not saying this is true for the VX but that's my experience with synthetic oil and an oil burning engine...

    Duly bookmarked. They will hire experts to delve into this and probably get their hands on internal documents too so it would be VERY interesting to see what their research turns up.

    Exclamation Pistons and Rings

    Hey Mark, thanks for the lawsuite info, I will be filing mine with them today. I have a question for you as VX Kat refered me to you for possible info on parts. I am currently looking for a used 02 Axiom block ( head is still good ) and wondered where to get the pistons and rings and if you knew of BETTER rings and where I might get them?
    thanks Julie
