Flywheel Lightening

[Nighty]

I searched and searched but i cant find the topic anymore.

 

Its the one topic where boonman gives some sizes of stock flywheels VS lightend flywheel.

 

I did found one topic stating to shave .185" (4,75mm) of the Outside diameter.

 

Anyone still have the pictures and sizes?

[boonman]

4.840" O.D. And don't cut the timing tabs off. You can turn the center hub up to the rivits, and the resulting O.D. is 2.800".

Yeah I'd like to know Boonman and Ron's emails. I have a couple guys that are thinking of getting flywheels lightened.

Any experience with ricky stator flywheels?

I have mine off now its outside diameter is 12.9 cm

If i would shave off 4.5MM the result would be 12 CM

 

i think the size should become 12.30 CM.

 

sooo basicly..

can the ricky flywheel be treated the same as stock flywheels?

 

thanks.

I have only lightened stock Yamaha Banshee flywheels, no experience with the Ricky Stator replacements. I do not know the diameter of the magnets in the Ricky Stator flywheels, so I will not be able to lighten one without the chance of ruining it.

Hmm thanks.

 

I'll find out today..

Any specs on hp gains or rpm from lightning your flywheel?

[boonman]

No HP gains. But the gain is well worth it. Ask ANYONE who has their flywheel lightened. They will tell you. You want it!!!!!

A lighter Mass flywheel will rev'up quicker, thats the Gian.

So you do feel it. Think like a horny rabbit, He can get the job done faster.

and the result is:

 

 

ricky stator == error.

 

stock seems o.k but was fucked up much earlier this year

 

gonna use the stock as tempfix while i order a new flywheel somewhere..

 

the ricky stator CANNOT be shaved 3MM... the stock is shaved 4.75MM and here i was thinking to be on the save side..

[DirtRider]

how far do you have to stay away from the timming tabs? you stay about.03 or just rub up against them? it almost looks in that pict that you shaved right up against it.

 

and did you say you shaved it down to 4.75 inches?

 

and lastly, can you water based oil that runs all over the fly wheel or will that ruin it? no oil, oil in certain places?

 

definatly shaving more off these things than i origanaly thought.
