dashee03 Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 Everyone knows a banshee is a bad spinner when trying to drag. So how does a lightened flywheel effect traction since it makes the bike rev quicker. Quote
hittintrees srh Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 (edited) How does a lightend flywheel have anything to do with traction????????? lightining the flywheel is a great engine mod, but the only way to improve traction is with suspension and tires-correct me if im wrong Edited June 4, 2006 by hittintrees srh Quote
creamsickle Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 honestly shaving down a flywheel really doesnt do much. its not that much weight that is noticable. some may argue that spinning mass is spinning mass. but really I find it hard to notice the difference in revs. Quote
Screamin_Banshee Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 Touchy subject. Lots of ppl have different opinions. Ive talked to trail riders that love them. They love the ability to get it on the pipe quicker coming out of corners. Sure sometimes traction can be an issue, but easily corrected with the right set-up on the bike. Then ive talked to drag racers that like the full weight, like said above, for the rotating mass. But thats all it is in dragging, once again the bike set-up is much more important. If you trail ride, or race mx..whatever and the lightened flywheel makes you lose tracion, add some. Quote
