I don't know about short life but, I do know it is dam fast, holds a tune and starts every time! Fantom .27!
I have seen the RB .28 run in person and it has plenty of power, starts and holds an idle good. Would I pay $300-$350 for one NO! I could buy a new Fantom and rebuild it 2 times for that and the Fantom has a faster top end.
LOL The RB will easy pull in 9-10 gallons before needing a rebuild. So thats like 9 rebuilds of a Fantom [:'(]
I am not on 6-8 gallons yet but, I am working on 3 and it is not showing any signs of slowing down yet. I am not knocking the RB but, if you can get a faster engine for less then why not. I will let you know when this Fantom dies. If it last for 3 more gallons then I got more then my monies worth! As I said in another thread where are you seeing all of these post saying the Fantom has a short lifespan? Unless you have 4-6 different forum members with the same problem then I don't see your point.
