Anyone else fall into this SB? Appear to encompass a large batch of engine/serial numbers and carbs.

So how bad is this and what is Rotax paying for?

Anyone else fall into this SB? Appear to encompass a large batch of engine/serial numbers and carbs. Me three. I just read the PDF. Is it clear to any of you the time for compliance? I don't see it listed. Usually, SBs say "before next scheduled maintenance" or "within next 100 hours" or at worst "before next flight." I didn't see any of that wording. I'm also attaching the PDF for anyone who wants to review it here.

I quickly scanned the instructions but I think it said within the next 25 hours but no later than July 31, 2020. I have re-read it to verify my memory.

I'll look again. I scanned quickly before. Sloppy reading habits!

I have to find someone familiar with Rotax in my area, as I don’t want to have to fly back four hours to Michigan where I had my annual done last month, for an hour or two or work. Anyone have a good Rotax service center in NY or NEPA?

No first hand knowledge in that area but you could start here. The new circlip has a new part number. I wonder how long before everyone gets it in stock?

25 hours is 3 months for a 100 hour flyer. Hopefully the parts will be in stock. Anyone check with Lockwood or their local Rotax service center regarding parts availability yet?

I just talked to Joe at Lockwood. He says no parts yet and not sure when they'll be delivered.

Is anyone not in this group of serial numbers? I'm in here as well.
