Another expectation was that the new 4 strokes would require less maintenance than the 300 XS.
Hence my post, I really want to check if my expectations are correct.

I have 23 hours on my 400R's and I love them. Pull like a freight train and great on fuel (I have a cat). Turn the key an GO!

Each motor 400 hp vs 1350 hp so one would think the motor with over 3 x as much power would need more of everything
