    Lightening Flywheel...anyone do this?

    Hey Guys...

    I pretty much know the 'pros' and 'cons' of lightening the flywheel.

    Pro - quicker acceleration, harder hitting power,

    Cons - more likely to stall, more wheel spin, revs can drop quicker

    Do you guys know anyone who can do this for me? Whats the cost?

    I have a 32oz flywheel...how much should come off? (this is an off road bike not a dragster).

    thanks!! (yes this is the 550 two stroke...I am sick)

    He can probably look at it and tell you better then I could. I know he takes a ton off of the Z and R flywheels. The dirtbike ones are always alot smaller though, but I'm sure he'll still be able to take some.
