Default unbalance a tc88b?

I was wondering if anyone here has taking the counter-balance out of a b motor to get them to rev higher?

Good luck. The motor is solid mounted to the frame, You'd shake the bike & yourself apart.

Itmay bepossible perhaps but it is not a good idea. If an “A” model engine is what you want I would say trade for a bike that comes with the rubber mounted “A” engine in it.

no of corse i mean you would balance the flywheels and as long as you got that down pretty good i dont think it would be anyworse than my rigid pan. (also could someone move this to the engine tech forum)

That would shake itself to pieces in about 10 minutes. If you want to have a rigid mount get a TC88A and ditch the rubber mounts. Then hang on tight...

I do not know what you have done to your 88 inch TC but those are really strong numbers that you are posting for an 88 inch motor. There are a good many 95 inch motors that will not do as well. Please enlighten us on the specific modifications that you have made.
