I've read Shazaams post on many occasions as he posts the link whenever we get this same question (which is quite a lot).

However whenever this come up the overwhelming majority of people who post about it (which obviously isn't the same as people who have a lightweight flywheel) have nothing but good things to say about getting it done....

My experience on my SL is also positive. The only downfall about riding it is the engine feels a bit lumpy(er) until warm (which Shazaam mentions). When cold its more prone to stalling but after 10 minutes or so it's great and would be the second thing (after lowering the gearing) I'd do to another SS/SL.

For reference I have a FbF flywheel fitted which is a bit heavier than the Nichols one.

And yes I'd like a set of lightweight wheels too but £1000 or £100....
