Default lighter flywheel

When you get a lighter flywheel (toda, spoon), do you lose torque? Thanks

I did do a search, but I found nothing that talked about the torque with the new flywheel?

I have the Spoon flywheel and it's about 5 pounds lighter than stock. It doesn't lose torque, it makes better use of the existing torque since the mass that the engine needs to spin is lighter. So no, it doesn't lose torque, nor does it gain torque.

What you will find that the flywheel spins up faster and also spins down faster.

See, I knew it was there.. with Malachi off surfing or some such nonsense, we need to band together to encourage the use of searching.
