flywheel lightening for mx?

[800screws]

is getting your flywheel cut a mx thing or more of a drag quad thing?

I think there are mixed opinions on lightened flywheels for MX. I'm pretty sure alot of it stems from doing the CR ignition swap.

Me personally, I like the heavier weight. MX is all about pulling strong out of corners and smooth power delivery.

X2, I've heard pros and cons of both. I like the heavier too, slightly more torque from flywheel effect, but I think the differences are marginal, I've not run a CR flywheel...yet, only the 86 and 89's... some prefer the lighter, claims they rev quicker. Its all personal preference.

Cr ignition is the way to go. Mine had more snap when I made that move.

I ran a lightend flywheel on my banshee for over a year and I liked that it revved up noticiably quicker then with a stock flywheel.

However I hated that it reved down super fast so I always had to shift down every time I let go of the gas for a couple seconds.

For mx I would say the heavyer flywheel would be better especially if you let off for a turn and need to get back on it fast and you dont like shifting 100x a lap.
