Fastman, thanks for the suggestion regarding the cam vs flywheel. That's an interesting problem. The flywheel requires a puller, special deep socket, and offset wrench. I suspect a prudent shopper could probably find those tools on Amazon or eBay for about the price of a DR650 cam. You do the flywheel and you get to keep the tools for future projects. You do the cam and you get the benefit of the extended powerband, but you have to go a bit deeper into the engine. It would be interesting to hear from some of the novices regarding which to tackle first.

For me it's cam before flywheel because while the lighter flywheel will let you spin faster, it's not what gets you there. Most of us are not looking to beat the next guy to the next corner anyway.

Look back at the number of posts from people asking for lighter flywheels vs people asking for Stage 3 or DR cams too. Based on that, cam swaps are the path most people take first.
