Apparently this is the defacto "XR" platform board? :face-icon-small-con


Anyway - I read somewhere recently in a mag or ??? about rolling a 4 stroke over to get out of a grave - that it leaked oil all over. I don't think that they were riding a Doo tho.

My Zx will leak - especially if you don't have the oil res threaded neck taped up, but if you don't Richard the dog, it's not a problem.

Is the 1200 (forget the turbo part) any bigger liability on this than the 2 strokes?

From my experience no. Put it on it's side or close to over and just shut it down. Different setup compared to the Yamaha's and Cat's with the external sump. Only place I think you could lose oil would be through the valve cover breather.
