Found a flywheel for an xe that weighs only 2.6kg, says race use only. Whats the engine going to run like with that?, i already have lighten flywheel but this is half the weight of that. And also its for use with 7 1/4 clutch, is this recommended for road use?

Not sure about that clutch mate but that flywheel is bloody light, should help the engine rev and fairly high, is the clutch a paddle clutch? what is the flywheel made of?

will make it rev like a screamer. but cant see it being overly effective overall. too light IMO, could see torque suffering

well only thing i was worried about was the fact that when the clutch is pressed that the engine will die, due to not having the momentum of the heavier flywheel. And how it will affect the tickover

The tick over could be come unsettled a bit but i'm sure the revs might drop off a slight bit faster.
