I owned one of the first BME 44 back sometimes in the 90s. Took the LHS over 2 months to get it. They quit selling the engine because it took so long to get them. Fine engine. Being in the "business world", it is very hard to have the perfect reputation when demand grows and you don't clone yourself. Keith. I suspect a similar fate happened to Dave Patrick.

My wife took a business course and one of the surprizing statistics (to me anyway) was that most business disappear because of burnout and not lack of demand. Oh well.
