Just wondering if theres many out there that have got the flywheel lightned on a lathe, and just used it without balancing it and the crank, I've heard of a few over here in IRL, but just wanted to get a bit of feedback from here, as if it "malfunctions" its a lot of time and money down the cr@pper.
I've just got mine done on a lathe at a good machine shop, but its not balanced, its going onto an M52

any help would be great, thanks!

Its already balanced mate,all you have done is skim some off the back which wont affect the balance :)
