I have a bit of experience with these flywheels so I thought I'd share that. I'm not saying use or don't use them.
Here is an example of what I mean. Should be lots of sellers with the same thing
It's a cast aluminum flywheel for Honda GXV160. The ones on Amazon have the logo from the casting company ground off. I have some without, here is what the logo looks like. Anyone have an idea what company it is? Why bother grinding it off? I can't find them....
If you are in China they can be found on Taobao for pretty cheap.
the taper fits the Honda GX200 but the flywheel has a bump at the end you need to drill or grind off. Otherwise it won't seat on the crankshaft.
What I don't know 100% for sure is the timing but GXV160 info online says 20 degrees BTDC. Both of these sites list the stock timing for the GXV160 as 20deg BTC

I have trouble removing these flywheels without damaging them. Any ideas of a good way to remove them? Prying and hitting the crank dents the flywheel.
