"But what now for RAM owners, who will provide the spares, as RAM could barely do it, I don't think the agents would be able to, they don't have the facilities either."

Everybody seems to think that RAM manufactured the parts themselves. Maybe a long time ago they did, but not recently.

When I was over at their faciltity last year, I was taken around the "skunk works" and shown all the things that were in the pipeline. vitually all the metal components were machined off-site and brought in for assembly and setting up.

This also applied to the ECU's which were brought/bought in batches and programmed to suit 500/750/1000.

So, the parts are not the problem.

Equipment required to work and assemble can be bought or manufactured, my workshop is testament to this.

All that's left is the expertise and the knowlege to be able to put all these ingredients together. Not impossible, there are a lot of people out there with the ability.

Putting a FADEC system ECU onto a RAM engine admits that it is a good engine.

So why don't we stop discussing what to do, and give the idea that "a new company will be formed to manufacture the engines, and market them, and a new service facility will be placed on the east coast to supplement Tad at Goldenwest in the west" instead of trying to produce yet another hybrid bitza to compete in an already crowded marketplace.

Cut them just a little slack and see what happens.
