What are pros & cons of this motor? It's on a 2006 Suntracker.

The big foot series is now being made out of China. I think they've been having problems with them. I remember a thread on the PBD forums where there were several big foot owners with major problems. New engine blocks were on back order which is usually a bad sign. I don't know if things have changed since then but for now, that motor is made in China for what that's worth. But then again, so are a large number of parts on my beloved Harley.

There were some issues with water getting into bottom cylinder. Newer ones had a fix but not sure on your model. If a dealer has it not likely they will own up to problem.
