My backplate started leaking (the oilite bush came loose) just like with my Sirio motor. So by the way most parts are identical to the Sirio motor (not that I mind) and I plugged the bush with aluminium plug and got a strterbox. Now we will see. It seems ALL these engines leak from the back and eventually will have a problem. I had 5 back plates leaking from the Sirio. As I said I think RB and Sirio comes from the same factory (maybe not the piston and sleeve) but the rest is identical. The RB have more torque than the Sirio and the powerband is smoother.

Rather than plugging the bushing you can get the correct backplate for the engine. the part number is RBC1901-323210
