    I really would love for you to do a ride report on the gasgas 250. I know it is a Husky site but we all are riders first and any info is appreciated. I know personally that GG250 is giving me minor wood which at this point in life is as good as it gets. :lol:

    same reason any bike would need a flywheel weight, to slow power delivery. improves traction, rideability, changes throttle response and the engines behavior all around the powerband.

    as i understand all tuning ignitions have very light flywheel (rotor), which gives quicker throttle reaction and less power loss. So, heavier rotor gives opposite effect?! So, i will do that, if i want "slow down" my bike?

    The CR flywheel was very light. In the woods, I often stalled the bike accidentally when coming into a corner around tight trees or setting up for log crossing. By adding some weight, the momentum would be enough to keep it from stalling but still keep the overall "CR" behavior that I liked. A WR flywheel would be too heavy for me.

    Besides what MattR said a flywheel weight also allows the rear tire to re-hook rather than blow the back tire off once it spins. You don't lose power it just stores inertia in the flywheel to smooth out acceleration and deceleration. A 10 oz. or less weight is hardly noticeable except you'll hook up better on loose rocky hills and not stall on logs as much. An extreme example of flywheel weight would be a trials bike, you can store a massive amount of energy in the flywheel and use the clutch to launch over about anything from a dead stop. It makes jap zaps and splatters much easier, you will be doing Graham Jarvis stunts in no time;) .
