Your thoughts on flywheel weights?

Milling the head would help your application a lot.  Wait 'till you ride mine this weekend.

PVL is the best way to go, it is about 1/8th the weight of the stock flywheel. You want to talk about SNAP!

KXcam22:
Arigato,
  When you milled your head did you reshape the chamber or just bring it down to minimum squuish?  :-) Cam.

Arigato:
Just took some squish out along with a cometic high performance gasket kit.  The cylinder was ported and the carb bored too.  However, I've seen relatively stock motors run very well with a little head shavin'. :mrgreen:

I have the 11oz. on my bike, it helped with traction in the PA dirt.
