    Crank balance question

    I've got an earlier un-welded 1100e crank coming. I would like to have it welded but was wondering... would that throw the balance off? or maybe it is so close to the center it will be a none issue for a daily rider & the every now and again w.o.t. Just something I'am thinking about. Side note: I'am going w/vesrah gaskets for the complete rebuild, any nay sayers?

    a press pin crank can not be balanced.
    they can be trued and welded.

    factory gaskets are the best when possible.
