I've got a customer who plans on running a '08 YZ450F Offroad, Some GNCC's and the like.
How much you guys think it would help? How many oz.?
Thanks.

The most he can fit on there. I saw a top off road racer cussing his YZF this weekend when he stalled it.

The biggest Steahly offroad makes is + 9 oz. it's not a weight...it's a complete flywheel.
Trail tech makes them also...but they don't have 08 models listed yet. I'd go with the +9 myself.

Yep, the smokers are lots more forgiving in woods racing.

Weld an anvil on the end of the crank, and then drop the pig off the nearest pier.

It will help save the clutch and keep it from stalling easily in tight woods.

Thanks for the info. This is the first guy I've had run a 450 in the woods. Actually, you shoulda seen the '04 YZ250 smoker this guy had! Badass.
