Default RE: Issues with BME 110 at Topgun 2005

BME seem to limit their own liability to such a degree that what they are actualy liable for is very small number of incidences. For example they wont warrant the carb or the ignition, the reason is that ignitions are made by CH so you have to go back to them and the walbro carbs are supposed to be so complex or open to user abuse so they dont warrant them either.

Its ridiculus that BME sell an engine using other manufacturers parts but wont warrant the bits they havent actually produced from scratch.

Its a good job car manufacturers dont do that or you'd be chasing around the world after the thousand or so comapnies that produced the origional bits. The only reason for it is money, they just cant afford to give a warranty on the whole lot. Companies like Fuji or Zenoha or Cimmaster are big enough to bite the bullet when things go wrong BME dont and wont.

Its my way of thinking that if you produce a product you warrant the whole lot for 12 months not send customers off to sort out issues with their (BME's) own suppliers.
