well i took my fly wheel off and decided to take it into work over sat and sun so that i could lighten it on the lathe. i was able to spend all weekend on as we had nothing to do anyway. the weight of the flywheel before i started was 6.6kg and i was able to get it down to 5.2kg. didnt fancy going any lower than that. god knows how they can take 30% off without weakening it.

heres a couple of pics including a tool i used so could clean the clutch plate face.

If you ever see the CTM (Big Jim) flywheel's, you'll notice that they mill out slots around the outer face of the flywheel. I did an accurate weight gauge this morning with my hands, against a stock flywheel, and it's certainly noticable.

That's the same 9 slot flywheel I have, although I mailed it out today to get some work done to it.
