just wanted to get some reviews from those of you that have swapped to a bdx, i am running a 07 tm8 rg and last year went through two boxes. i have heard that going to a bdx is the way to go but ive also heard that i will end up with the same problems, if any of you have had experience with this i would love to know what you have found. thanks in advance

this question has been asked several times....do a search
IMO, its best to remove/inspect/clean every 400 miles or less....and have a planet get on hand, only $190 from BDX, and get a new $10 bearing while you're at it...this bearing is too hard to not damage during removal

I got a BDX DD Lite at the same time my 07 M8 got a turbo . I put 800 miles on it last season at 12 lbs and did not have any problems. The cool part was dumping the 11-12 lbs of dead weight that is reverse .
I love the dipstick , it is so nice to be able check the oil level before every ride. I am very happy with mine.

thanks for the input guys, question for you dano, were the extra pounds lost quite noticeable? how bad did it suck to lose reverse?

The weight loss was huge , it just feels really light now. To be honest i never did use the reverse more than a few times , it always scared me . I know a guy who works for a dealer , and he told me how many he had changed.
He said it was junk and to take it out and sell it before it was worth zero.
