Default how much do they weigh?

hey

ok, a couple of quick questions, firstly, how much does the stock GS-R flywheel weigh?, and how much can i lower it down to by machining it? or, what sort of wiehgt could i get for a whole new custom made one?

also, whats the weight of the standard GS-R rims (the ones with the 5 broad spokes) and the weight of the Type R rims....

not 100%, but my flywheel on my RS weighed 17 pounds on a bathroom scale. those arent that accurate, so it should be around there.

I think GSR and RS LS GS have same flywheel. R's have a bit lighter, but only like a pound or two, not as significant as aftermarket light weight.
