Yup...DA has the best customer service that I have experienced. I bought a used DA50...it was hard to start. Did a boat load of troubleshooting however i couldn't get it to run correctly. Sent it in and i got a new ignition module (ignition module was faulty), new rod, piston, ring, bearings and a carb mod.....all for free and no hassle. 350$ worth of work for free. I'm glad my 100 cc motor is a DA..

Regardless of what may have happened, contact Mike Briggs and we will have the engine replaced.

AS all ways "DA service Second to no one"!!!

Wow!!! Da is simply the best in the buissness!!!!

Legendary support is right, that's what sells their engines! DA will be around for a long time gentlemen. Glad I have one and I should have another ...

Sorry that your engine had troubles but seing DA step up like that (as I have heard they usually do) makes me very glad that I just bought a DA-50

DKjens · 01-04-2007, 10:27 PM

Note that DA Tech also managed to mention that they have produced and sold 8,000 DA50-R's by now

. Yep, them little fittys go like hot cakes he he. Dave and crew rocks. Do you have plans Saturday evening or are we all going to dinner?????

Amen to that! D/A service and quality second to none!

All D/A's in my fleet now except for one left over ZDZ80 and when the D/A 75 finally debuts it will be headed for the marketplace! LOL!!!

GremlinX · 01-04-2007, 11:12 PM

Sad to see, glad to se the end... and that DA has some kind of CS! Awesome.

Extra260 · 01-05-2007, 12:37 AM

He didnt even ask that many questions about what happened. Just offered a new one. It is the companies that whine and tell you that it isnt covered under warrenty that make us all fly da (regardless I would anyway). Obviously I have to many good things to say about them and I think everyone else does to!!!

**rcdart** · 01-05-2007, 02:54 AM

Maybe it should be DA that has the CS range of engines
