Max Power XXL3 Balanced .12 engine ~~FULL PHOTO~~

The crankshaft in a one cylinder engine has always been a debate, myself I don't think it's possible I believe the weight is there to move the resonance frequency higher to get higher rpm's when metal inside an engine starts resonating it's hard to get past that vibration point and get speed.
Heavier/denser resonates much later = no vibration barrier to compete with.
Most high end crankshafts are lighter, but the slugs in the counter weights are denser.
But that's just an educated guess

balancing
the tungsten insert is a counter weight designed to do the above.
Resonation causes the engine to vibrate anywhere between say 5000 & 15000 rpm by using a counter weight it would shorten it to around 5000-10000 or something like that.
a good example is HONDA they use a counter weighted cam shaft to offset resonation at 3500 rpm .if they cant balance a crank how is it max power can?
