It just occured to me that with a high revving engine, there isn't as much torque to deal with at the clutch friction face and mounting ring for a given power output. I would have thought that would make it much easier to get away with an all alloy flywheel, and with a small two/three plate clutch fitted the steel running face could probably be left out as well.
