I added TWENTY ONE total ounces as an experiment (initially 9oz clutch on the clutch... Subtle change... then added an additional 12oz flywheel) just to see what would happen and if I needed to remove the clutch weight. SURPRISED it is Nirvana 😊. Similar to my Honda 300 Cota Trials, its lugging capability is awesome but still with the sporty snap of this renown 2t 300. Easy to be playful dancing the front wheel off roots etc like my trials bike but now more controlled propulsion on my 2023 TE300i. In short, absolutely love this set up in the gnar as well as open trails (and you know I love the technical gnar and Hill climbs). I NEVER would have tried this simple combo but I stumbled into the experiment fully expecting it would dog the throttle response. Nope... Nirvana 😊
I had an 8oz on my '20 TPI and loved it. As you said, it was subtle but where you noticed it was where it counted. I think the biggest problem is folks think more is better and end up with too heavy a FWW which can zap power and make the bike harder to spool up the rev's. I'm a fan for sure.
I would avoid Nice CNC. They sent me some crappy parts then ghosted the shit out of me. Refused to reply to eBay messages, emails, or an inquiry sent through their website.

I’ve been wanting to try one on my new 24 TE300, thanks for the video, I’m also in SW Wa just south of Mt St Helens

Agreed. I had a 9oz on my TPI and liked it a lot. 12oz seems like too much. The 7oz on this bike seems like the sweet spot!
@3:46 Those logs almost kill me 🤣
I thought the TBI models already come with a flywheel weight...I believe my new '24 300 xc-w does?
The XCW does have a heavier flywheel than the XC. But it’s not a weight, it’s just the flywheel itself. You can add a weight to either one.
@@WASemiHardEnduro ok gotcha
Have you tried the latest K map from TSP?
Not yet. I didn't care for the J map so I went back to the I map (with my own tweaks).
