Default Valach 170 engine

Looking to get one of these engines for an upcoming build. From what I can see of video on you tube they sound fantastic. But how is there longevity, operational wear, and anything else about them. So if anyone has one, or had one, or knows someone who does or did, please let me know your thought's or experience's.Thank's,Robert

There made in Germany so they have a high standard to uphold. Will they still be around when something wears out, do you know h a helpfull CNC machine shop?

These engines are not made in Germany. They are made in Czech Republic.

Look at this 800CC giant

For me 50CC would be a great breakthrough, let alone these sizes. I also wanted to buy ZDZ motor which are also made in Czech Republic. I haven't seen ZDZ being used that much.

BTW 3W is German brand
