  • tirestripper my msn in profile! Tire Stripper Motorcycle Wheel Balance

  • hahaha total stupid system is only static balanc no dynamic balance in normal machine make job cheap and profesional (3-8eur) this is good for cross motorcycle no supersport :-))))) sory for my english

  • Dynabeads google them

  • Make sure not to cross-balance a tire, do not have weights spaced on opposite sides of the tire. This will have an adverse affect on the wear of your tire and will cause high speed instability.

  • thanks dude i didnt know that...

  • A balanced wheel will improve handling and have more even tire wear.

  • what's the importance to balance the wheel?

    Thanks!

  • computers balancers suck

  • I have heard that you should give a slow spin to the tire a few times & let it settle...each time marking the heavy spot to see if it is always the same spot.

  • @RKendall48 You shouldn't spin it. Just let it settle, but after it settles mark the light spot at the top then turn the wheel about 1/3 of a turn allow it to settle twice more, each time marking the light spot at the top. Your marks should be more than an inch away from one another. If they are do it again until you get 3 marks within an inch of one another, then place you weights there.

  • Good video. Would it be better to put half of the total weight required onto each side of the rim? That way there's no dynamic imbalance.

  • using this method you would just want to put the weight as close to the center of the rim as possible. you will probably never notice the difference unless you race or ride at high speeds, even then it's doubtful. most computer balancers will be able to detect where the heavy spot is and tell you which side and how much weight to add.
