i thought it was supposed to be 11lbs WITHOUT the counterweight? i am seeing 11lbs WITH it...that's a lot lighter than i expected!

is this actually the 9.5 lbs flywheel, or do they state their weight WITH the counterweight?

and yes, i did try weighing myself without, then with the counterweight on the scale. same deal. about 10.5 lbs the scale says.

 

might just be that its bathroom scale........although I would think any inaccuracy on a bathroom scale would make the thing standing on it...errrr laying on it be LIGHTER - lol

 

it's not too inaccurate. a 20lb benchpress weight reads 20lbs, haha. seems to work for me.

i'm just scared i will be stalling at every stoplight :|

 

yup, that will be a pain to get used to.....

 

is the friction plate in-tact? i cant really tell, and i just woke up

 

Its not that bad. I have an 11 pound flywheel (but with counterweight) and its really not bad at all. The very first time I drove it I had to start out on a steep incline and I didn't have a problem. Yes, it will take some getting used to, but it wont be undrivable at all. Also, a lot of post offices have accurate scales if you want to be sure.

 

no sr offers a 9.5 FW and with the counter weight it weights 11. I have one. i think next time i get one it will be a act one. Ive had some issues with mine , but finally got them all worked out

 

not quite sure. how can you tell?
i will take a pic later...
