Do you guys have your wheels "high speed balanced" or "static balanced"? I got mine static balanced and I'm noticing a little bit of a shimmy about 85MPH. It feels like it's coming from the front wheel. Any ideas?

 

i got mine to the balance point

 

your tires are to thin to be high speed balanced, any tire from a 200 and under gets static balanced. any ? call 586 465-2230 ask for tony

 

For sure call tony at the number in the above post hes one of the best around helped me out alot with my f2 give him a call

 

just keep the wheel in the air and you will have no problems

 

good point raybone

 

i have always been a fan of the static balance, but when the brought out the camber balance in 95!! now thats the shiit!

 

Everything we see is made up of tiny little parts called atoms. The atoms are made of even smaller parts. These are called protons, electrons and neutrons. They are very different from each other in many ways. One way they are different is their "charge." Protons have a positive (+) charge. Electrons have a negative (-) charge. Neutrons have no charge.
Usually, atoms have the same number of electrons and protons. Then the atom has no charge, it is "neutral." But if you rub things together, electrons can move from one atom to another. Some atoms get extra electrons. They have a negative charge. Other atoms lose electrons. They have a positive charge. When charges are separated like this, it is called static electricity.

If two things have different charges, they attract, or pull towards each other. If two things have the same charge, they repel, or push away from each other.


EXAMPLE-------->F = k (q1 X q2) / d**2

TRY THIS ONE!!!

Light a light bulb with a balloon
You Need:
hard rubber comb or balloon
a dark room
fluorescent light bulb (not an incandescent bulb)

SAFETY NOTE: DO NOT USE ELECTRICITY FROM A WALL OUTLET FOR THIS EXPERIMENT. Handle the glass light bulb with care to avoid breakage. The bulb can be wrapped in sticky, transparent tape to reduce the chance of injury if it does break.

What to do:
Take the light bulb and comb into the dark room.
Charge the comb on your hair or sweater. Make sure to build up a lot of charge for this experiment.
Touch the charged part of the comb to the light bulb and watch very carefully. You should be able to see small sparks. Experiment with touching different parts of the bulb.
What happened: When the charged comb touched the bulb, electrons moved from it to the bulb, causing the small sparks of light inside. In normal operation, the electrons to light the bulb come from the electrical power lines through a wire in the end of the tube. (Fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs will be discussed in a future issue.)

 

What I would do is keep it above or below 85 m.p.h. and ding, ding ding, problem solved. And Agree with busta on that camber balancing unit which was produced in the early 80's but, was not brought out until 95' because of Reagon selling arms to Iraq.
