No if you replace the crank once with a stroker crank then every time after that you would be replacing it with the same stroker crank that performs the same.

right but the point being is that youve replaced the stock crank with a stroker crank=more power than stock

Every major engine builder I've spoken with has said that a trued, balanced and welded OEM Rotax crank is a very good piece capable of good HP and longevity. That includes CT, BCS and JSR Performance.

He said he replaces cranks on other quads....not the rotax one...yet...lol
Plus if u stroke it, replaceing the crank, as well as a hi-comp piston or any oother "hop-up" part is just part of basic maintainence...dunno y a crank would need replacing so noften tho...
