Alright, so I have read all the tech specs on the various websites. DA , ZDZ, 3W etc.
I am aware of most of the pros and cons of forged vs. Machined parts including crankcases.

What are your opinions guys. Da has a machined crankcase. 3W is Forged. Typically I go for a machined product. 3W's wisdom with their TSCS engine is awsome. The motors seem great. The part that I am not too keen on though is the fact that they are forged. Hmmmm. I have seen voids in forged parts before that have let loose when least expected.

Everyone has seen the several ZDZ blowouts rescently.

Any thoughts or reassurance?
