Round and round she goes and where she stops, YOU want to
know! That's the whole idea behind Handy Industries new Static
Wheel balancer. I am all the time changing my back tire on
the Hayabusa (I wonder why?) during those wonderful summer
months when I can ride every day. But every time I do, I have
to drive 15 miles and take the wheel over to our shop where
I can use our Snap-On electronic wheel balancer. It cost my
cousin over $3200.00 and boy is she a beauty. The Snap-On
unit will tell you how much weight to add and where on the
rim to add that weight. Hmmmmmm, $3200.00, hmmmmmm. Now if
I could have that same quality balance in the privacy of my
own shop (garage) and it only took 3 minutes to do at a cost
way under $200.00, then that's the ticket!
Handy Industries to the rescue! Two minutes on the Internet and voila, my wheel balancer was being shipped direct to my front door.
Insert the balance Rod thru the wheel bearings, hang it on the rack and your tire will automatically rotate by itself. The heavy part of your tire will fall to the bottom which is the opposite side of where you add the weight. It worked every time I moved the tire to any number of positions. I even tried to fool it by spinning the tire and when it finally came to a stop, you guessed it, the same spot. This is one of those trick items you just got to have in your shop. It's slick, trick and quick.
