Wheel Balance problems?

If anyone is having problems with main wheel shudder on takeoff ( and nose wheel shimmy on the t/o run ), I offer this home made solution to try... cost me about $50-60 to put together ( you need a lathe or a mate with one).

 

If anyone is interested and motivated enough to make their own, PM for details.

 

You can buy them commercially from a few m/cycle accessory importers but they range in price from about $250-400.

 

Interestingly, it required about 50-60 grams to balance the mains with the discs attached.

 

Best of all....it works!!
