Tell me more please.. Where are you adding weight to? Need to ripe up apart soon to understand it better, redline has had a bunch of success going to the Poo clutch over pdrive and says it 4 lbs lighter over all.. That's huge


Or as Norsepeak did, just find some washers/bushings the appropriate diameter.
IMO this is mandatory for any G4 Summit under 7-8K ft elevation. You can see from the location of the weight adjustment bolt that it will not have a huge impact on peak RPM compared to adding weight in the old TRA with the weight at the end of the arm. A buddy has added close to 8g to his '17 with little change in peak RPM but zero belt issues and he is not a light rider. Takes about 5 minutes to adjust weight on the hill. Load it up until you kill it, then back off a couple G's.
I would also go up a step on the secondary spring (black) to keep a quick backshift with the added primary weight.
Adjustable flyweights like offered by SHR look like a nice option as well, even more adjustability.
