not sure about the premix question, my posiforce system worked fine so i've never looked into it.
to be on the safe side i wouldn't, but then it's quite hard to find any parts if the system has broken on yours...

Hey, I saw the dealer sticker on the back, not sure who they were then, but I work for City Motorcycles (The Pacific Motorcycle Co.) in Vanguard Street, Nelson!!

It's NOT a good idea without some mods to crank and crankcase
the pics you posted of failed main bearings show the 'cup' that feeds oil to big ends, it works by using oil that was fed to main bearings which gets centrifuged outwards,collects in lip then fed through a tubular section direct to big end,
It works incredibly well (Honda use an almost identical system on various motors, CB350~360, CB125~250T,etc)
Main reason for bearing failure is running pre-maix without removing oilcollectors then grooving crankcase to allow oil in
