why did u put on spoke weights? Are u running a rim-lock or did u just correct a shake in the wheel/tire? i am curious as i have a shake in the front since i put in a HD tube, but I am not running any rim-locks....I wonder if these weights would fix that or not.
I am running with a rim lock and that's why I added the spoke weights. I spun a tire on the rim early on with no rim lock and needed to go with the spoke weights to balance the wheel after it was added. I ran a rim lock for about 100 miles without spoke weights and the ride was terrible over 45mph. Now the ride is superb and with the stock mirror drag gone due to the new mirrors, higher speeds are more comfortable.
Take your wheel to the shop and have it ballanced. Chances are that you may only need the 'stickey weights' to balance it out. I have a HD tube as well. If you end up needing spoke weights then PM me. I have plenty left and would be happy to mail you some.
Good luckl.
