straight weight ratios have nothing to do with this subject----It more depends on what radius the mass is accelerating---a mass at 4 inch isn't the same as a mass at 3 inches--

I will start weighing cranks as I do them and post some weights--I'm too busy to go back and sort thru my records to get the weights of various cranks

The weight of the rotating mass will have more feelable effect on clutch engagement and deceleration for corners and sync ing of engine and trans on gear changes than will be feelable on just straight acceleration.

But thanks for the idea of getting specs from Craigs List as the next time I need some bearing clearance or rod/main bore specs I'l have a new place to research---I bet Kieth and Barry are glad to find out about them also
