yea, and they made the cam chain tensioners out of the same stuff i think. My dad has a mate who brought a VF when they came out, and it ate a couple of cam-chains. Honda replaced each one free of charge because they didn't want to be see to be ignoring what was a really big issue

For good V4 sound, i need to buy an RC30 or RC45 really. mmmmm
