Now …… now I am curious.
A buddy of mine and I were talking today and this very subject came up, he said he throws the same 5 golf balls in his GL's tires every time he mounts up a new one. I know some truck operators do it, off roaders too, but I never heard of it being done with a MC tire. If the Air-Soft BBs (that I use) ... & those "balance beads" (that some of you use) … can find balance, I wonder then … why can't 5 golf balls find balance too? My grandpa used to fill the big tractor's tires with liquid, it always road pretty smooth on the black top in high gear with throttle up, and it was flying. Even clothing in a our dryer will try to balance the drum, but they often aren't free to moved so freely. I might even try it myself. First though, I'll need to go to the store and get some cheap golf balls. 8 or 10 should do the rear tires of the trike, 4 or 5 in each at next tire change. I'd try it in the trike's front tire except it's near new Avon radial trike tire, and I'm gonna need 2 rear P215/70-15 tires sooner (already shopping around for the right look) anyway.
