This is VERY worrisome - if S&S will not even supply normal maintenance spares for a recently produced engine, how will we keep these things on the road? I would have thought Morgan would have required S&S to continue to stock spares for some years after production ended, but I guess that's too much to ask.
Worrisome indeed but I feel the blame here lies with S&S. The story I heard is that when it was announced that X-Wedge production would end, Morgan placed a huge order on S&S for X-Wedge spares but this was not fulfilled.
I also heard a rumour that the new X-Wedge owner is converting it to metric before recommencing production. I'm not sure that would make sense bearing in mind that their largest market is likely to be the US, but it's what I heard.
