Re: Fifty shades of Jade

Hundred per cent agree I picked this engine due to being "bulletproof." I think there are a few factors that are leading me to have issues. 1. The rear wheel is a huge rotating mass 5x that on any SSB (Super Street bike) I believe the higher gyroscopic forces outweigh the mass increase but...
