How to balance motorcycle wheels using a static balancer.

[nlrider2012]

Is there a need or advantage of using 2-plane dynamic balancing like a motorized machine would use?

@nlrider2012 I think since motorcycle wheels are so narrow and much lighter than car wheels, there wouldn't be much advantage using a 2 plane balancer.

wow, I had no idea it could be done this easy. Great vid!

How often will the tire get unbalanced to where you actually need to do this?

[wedginator]

@acarter4242 You do this after you change your tires or when you feel excess vibrations.

@wedginator

Have you tried dynabeads or BBs? I'm probably changing my tires tomorrow & am gonna try the Dynamic method

Man I saw all your videos! They are still helping me a lot! You are good, very good! Bravo. We live a little bit far from each other, but trust me, you would be my best co-owner in my mechanic garage! Ciao , alla prossima.

@spirignaus Thank You! all the best!

[spirignaus]

Did you also change the tires by yourself?

[wedginator]

@spirignaus No, I bring it to a friend. He has a machine to do change tires.

Question: is that balance-axle balanced out? Because there are 2 bolts in there...

You can check this very easy: Set it down and see or the bolts will rotate to the underside. I was wondering.. I also have this type of balancer, but with plastic cones.

Good video!

@peter0139 I pondered that too, but the 2 bolts are very light and negligible to the balance. I think the maximum tolerance is 1/2 ounce so the 2 bolts won't make much of a difference. Thanks!
