"It looks like the crank had been balanced by itself which would mean some sort of modification to either add or remove weight."

The phrase ' engine in a million bits ' merely indicates the engine is apart Kev....and doesnt even hint at the crank being balanced by itself, so thats a pretty big assumption imho, and would have been far better served by asking a question, rather than opening debate away from the original post without even so much as asking me direct. I only heard about it cos someone gave me the heads up....

seems a bit harsh, Skids never mentioned anyone specifically, more opended a debate which clearly needed to be had, looking at the number and type of posts.

also, having read your other thread (I didnt until this little lot!) I would also have thought you have stripped and balanced everything

TBH as someone non technical, I have found this thread really informative; I know have a bit of an undrstand as to what you lot are always talking about!!

Ok Kev.. I'll stick some chicken wire down the silencer baffles that should slow it down a bit

That is the same as my 620 Class A DD bike....

Seems to me there are way more unbalanced cranks sitting on the seats!!

You Grass!!




I'll be lucky to get 50bhp to be honest, I'm hoping my bike gets picked
random to be tested on a dyno, at least i get to see if my fueling is to pot

saves me £50 too

To hell with it all, I'm having the crank balanced on my Supersport!

Anyone with less than 50bhp will be lucky to be "randomly" selected for a dyno run I reckon. Unless they are some kind of racing god. - you'd need to be troubling the scorers to get some random attention -

There are a lot of very well sorted and high budget 583s out there, some probably able to make 53bhp with ease.

Get those bikes and yourselves on a diet, that's the key. I reckon with a lighter bike and light rider, you can obviously get off the line much more quickly than heavier bike/rider combinations and those 3 or 4 places you can make up into turn 1 would be really tough to make up anywhere else.
