Hi All,
I'm in the throes of new tires for my Silver K75. At a recent club meet/thingey a comment was made that my rear was getting, ..well squared off. And they are over 10 years old... So I ordered up a set of Dunlop 404's. That took over a week to get delivered. During the wait period I started painting the wheels/rims. But part of this is balancing the wheels. Now I have a wheel balancer that I made a while back. Works fine for front wheels But the rear is a challenge I've never quite overcome and I would like to solicit suggestions about how to either modify my wheel balancer or how to go about it. These are K75 which I suspect is the same as a K100 rear wheel. And I'll post a photo of my wheel balancer - which BTW you can purchase for < USD $50. off EBay, but this one is home made.
