I agree we should not bash the DA, it is by all accounts a great engine and I don't think you can fault their after sales service, which at the price of the engine should be expected and I would encourage all of us to be circumspect when comparing the 2, we don't want another thread locked!!

However, I have been shot down on several UK boards by die-hard DA supporters when I have mentioned how well my DL runs, I didn't mean to put down the DA but that is how it is interpreted! The bottom line is that the DL is a great engine at a great price and you can't fault people for being over enthusiastic about it.

By the way I get 7300rpm on a 3W 23x8 on a KS cannister, not a pipe, which is pretty good in my book.
