Can anybody explain why this bike has a Crankshaft Balancer backlash adjustment screw? This is the first bike I came across that uses one, and I understand why we have to adjust it. But why doesn't the crankshaft stay balanced? Why does it come out of adjustment? Why don't other bikes use them? It seems like Honda is cutting corners with this adjustment screw, because they couldn't figure how to keep it balanced without us having to do periodically .
Just saying........Huh
