WHEEL BALANCE
Wheel balance directly affects the stability,
handling and
nvRrall safRty
of
thB mntnrcyr.IR.
Carefully check balance before reinstalling the
wheel.
NOTE:
• Mount the tire with the arrow mark facing in the
normal rotating direction.
• The wheel balance must be checked when the
tire is remounted.
•For optimum balance, the tire balance mark (a
paint dot on the side wall) must be located next
to the valve stem. Remount the tire if necessary.
Mount the wheel, tire and brake disc assembly on
an inspection stand.
Spin the wheel, allow it to stop, and mark the
lowest (heaviest) part of the wheel with chalk.
Do this two or three times to verify the heaviest
area.
If wheel is balanced, it will not stop consistently in
the same position.
To balance the wheel, install balance weights on
the lightest side of rim, the side opposite the chalk
marks.
Add just enough weight so the wheel will no longer
stop in the same position when it is spun.
Do not add more than 60 g (2.1 oz) to the wheel.
