Oh I've imagined it...
Interesting to note, KTM's LC4 690 single has a counterbalancer and they
claim on their website that it reduces vibrations to "Inline 4" levels.

Only thing hurting them is they don't have Desmo valves, so high RPMs create
havoc in the valve train.

Anyone know of a schematic or detailed information on the Rocker setup used
in the Supermono?
