Wheel balancing
To improve the vehicle stability and reduce vibra-
tions at high speed, the wheels have to be kept in
a perfectly balanced condition.
To balance a wheel, proceed as follows:
• Remove the wheel and set it up on a forked
stand.
• Spin the wheel slowly several times and watch if
it always stops in different positions, thus
indicating a correct balance.
• If one point of the wheel always stops at the
bottom, put a balancing weight opposite this
point. • Repeat the operation till the wheel is
correctly balanced.
Tires
These are included in the motorcycle
components that have to be kept under control
very carefully as the vehicle stability, riding
comfort, and sometimes even the rider's safety
are dependent on them. Therefore it is
unadvisable to use tire having less than 2 mm
(1/16") thickness tread.
