I have zero actual experience but I have seen the innards of a Rotax 912
(demonstrated by a Rotax rep) that showed the ill effects of avgas. Lead
poisons the modern Austrian engine as surely as it poisoned the ancient
Romans.

Subject: Rotax 914-avgas or Mogas
Hi folks,
just been reading the march issue of todays pilot magazine.
There is an article about fuels that just confused me. Read through a
paragraph that says mogas is unsuitable for turbocharged engines. Previously
i had read that avgas damages the valve seats on rotax engines. Now whats
the
truth? I think i'll be calling austria tommorrow. Anyone with long term
experince on either fuels with the rotax engine?
regards Karim.
