Roller weights top speed is it real or imagination

[easyrider]

I expect some blowback on this , but in theory how does roller weights affect top speed? I can see weights changing the rpm vs acceleration, but top end is top end. Ideally you would want your rpms to gradually increase to maximum power band /rpms/speed. I think HONDA has done that with their design and testing engineering. I believe roller weights can change acceleration and deceleration but once that belt is maxed so is your max speed. There is no more !! In fact a heavier weight should push the belt further out increasing top end speed if anything.I know my PCX tops out at 64mph with my body weight and that's due to a rev limiter kicking in.If I went with a lighter than stock weight set up then I would reach maximum RPMs sooner at a lower speed where my limiter would kick in, because rev limiter is based on RPM's I believe.I know many on here swear they have seen increases and I believe they have by going to lighter than stock weights , but can someone explain in engineering terms how this is possible ?inquiring minds want to know ???? LOL

Lighter weights improve your power to weight ratio.





A little

one less cheeseburger improves your power to weight ratio as well !!
