I hope BRP US executives read this.....Here in southern Tasmania Australia try and buy an E-Tec...you can't...a friend who fitted my E-Tec115 was able to buy motors at a reasonable price from the north of the state, this dealer has had enough of BRP crap politics and won't sell BRP products, The Victorian BRP office is next to useless and won't help...now this friend has convinced the Tasmanian government that high tech 2 strokes are the way to go and that the E-Tec is the best, motors in question are the 225's and 150's but because he can't source E-Tec's he has been forced to go Optimax....BRP needs to have a good look them selves, its NO GOOD if you have the best product on the market if you can't buy it...BRP Australia don't seem to care...Tasmania is only a little backwater...what sort of marketing is that, you guy's in the US are blessed with the service and backup offered....I'm just glad my E-Tec 115 is a good and reliable motor and I don't require warranty work because there in none.
BRP please do something the rectify this problem...besides how else will you sell your products to small markets....remember its the little fish that taste sweet.
