Doordie,
  That pic is a cool shot. Easy to see the how the filler flows with the reeds in. Nice case reed motor (yamaha?). How was Gotland? Cam.

Balance crank? i think you mean align after getting big end changed.  Cranks are only balanced perfectly for one speed only so maybe people change the balance for a different speed but i am sure wouldn't matter a stuff when riding a 500.

I had Eric Gorr balance my crank for 7k-8k area. Nothing, but down low. It is horrible! Numb my hands within' seconds. But when I'm doing a WFO run, it's as smooth as silk.
