    Anyone tried?

    Will it vibrate my hands white?

    The point is to reduce rotating mass for quicker throttle response and moaaaar power :)
    No idea would it be any use or not!?

    It will vibrate itself to pieces i'm afraid. Don't do it. Shave some weight off the flywheel if you want a brisker response

    Dont the left kickers have no balancer? What are they like to ride?
    The balancer is better left where it is though.

    If you want quicker throttle response and more power, get rid of your FI 610 and get a carbed 610.

    Or get a 450/510.

    Common theme: Get a different bike (or learn how to manipulate the 610's broad smooth power characteristics to your advantage)

    That's a good advice.

    I will leave counterbalancers and flywheels alone.
