March 3, 201610 yr Seeing as there are lots of questions about flywheel weights has anybody got a 247, 307, 309 etc with a full set of flywheel weights? I would like to know what the size and weight of the small weight is? The manual gives figures for them in Kg cm² which is not very helpful! There should be four options. Rotor on its own, rotor + small weight, rotor + big weight and rotor + small weight + big weight. I’ve got the big weight but would like to have a bit of a play and would love to know what the original options are.
March 3, 201610 yr Author Not sure if Bill is still trading his website seems to off disappeared. If I know the size and weight I can easily make one.
March 3, 201610 yr Author Do you have contact details for Bill as I can't find anything on the web that current!
March 11, 201610 yr Mine has just the outer ring bolted on. I have only ridden the bike round the yard to see how it runs then tore it apart. I will probably take the weight off during the rebuild as I hate heavy flywheels! I presume this is the big weight?

March 12, 201610 yr Author Steve, after the various threads on forum about flywheel weights I was interested in trying all the combinations except the heaviest one with both weights. The more I think about the way the bike feels the more I think it would be better without the weight, but a lot of the events close to me are real mud pluggers so I could see me swapping weights depending on venue. It's just about experimenting at this point.
