[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 100220, member: 485"] Anybody know why there should be a "Sweet spot",I would have thought balance is balance. I have a Twin which is smooth at 70 mph, At 85 your teeth fall out, 90 + smooth again, But you have to come back through that 85 spot, When you slow down, And you wish you never went that fast. I had the main bearing bored many years ago, God knows what he did, There is now a bit of end float on the Crank, That's not right !, I fear if I take it apart, It won't get put back again. It starts well, Don't smoke, Goes like a Rocket, Just hope it don't go Bang !. Cheers Bill. [/QUOTE]
