[QUOTE="mobrown, post: 730077, member: 50563"] I have been reading the forums (seemingly non-stop... I'm hooked) since joining last month and have read a lot about flywheel weights being installed on MX bikes for trail riding . I took a long break from riding (about 24 years) and recently got back into it. I went out and bought 1991 CR250 in great shape and a totally rebiult engine and it runs very strong. Of course it has that 2-stroke breakneck surge when you hit the band (which is why we luv 'em!). Is the stock powerband not good for trail riding or just something to just get used to? I originally bouth a 1991 KX125 (I'm 6'1", 195 lbs.) and as ya know you got to stay on a 125 to keep it going so I bought the 250 for better lows and mids. How does the FWW smooth out the band and where exactly does it go? I haven't cracked a case or pulled a head on a bike for millenia and can't imagine putting a weight on the flywheel. Is this necessary for trail riding/enduro and if I wanted to do some track work would it be detrimental? Also... is this year of CR250 (1991) a pretty good year? Thanx for any replies in advance [/QUOTE]
