flywheel questions
 

alright as ive never been into a motorcycle motor i can only guess it works like a car motor. that being said my clutch is toast and its coming out over the winter and being replaced, not sure if im upgrading yet or just going oem. i know with a car youre supposed to machine the flywheel each time you change the clutch. now seeing as our bikes have a wet clutch, would i be safe to assume it engages a flywheel the same as a car or is the flywheel there just to balance the motor in some way and the clutch being a multi disc unit somehow works on its own?

No need to machine the flywheel for a clutch change... The ordering of parts is a bit different in a bike than on a car engine since you stick the stator in there as well instead of the more separate generator of a car... The clutch "works on it's own" in that respect as you said...

However a fun trick for faster spool up of the engine and more race adapted engine character is to lighten the flywheel on the VTR some... Do a search and there are many discussions about it... Add "roger ditchfield" to the search as well as "flywheel" and you get full specs for the recommended dimensions...

nice thanks tweety, ill look into that today, id love to get this bitch to rev up faster :D
