Joe, Check out Gino's article at: http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Downs/6164/page29.html I purchased the stand listed in the article and it is really sweet and makes balancing fast. It is pretty expensive though. Over 200 as I recall. The axle annotation he mentions has been changed to two machined cones that center the tire. Good Luck, Jim Jackson II A13 - South Carolina P.S. Gino, don't be so sensitive! You of all people from what I have seen should know that some people don't take certain jokes very well... Remember the Beemer guy you coached before MOAB? Some folks were seriously pissed but somehow life continued. For my part, I don't take anything too seriously except... um, hmmmmmm, ok I don't take anything too seriously.

I'm kinda afraid to ask Dash for advice given our diferences regarding loud pipes, radial riding on hiking trails, etc.. (kidding) Got a great re-direct to Gino's article on changing and balancing tires. Thanks! Joe -----Original Message----- From: RACING43RD@...

I always use a new tube, others said they just replaced the Slime that leaked out. I believe Dash has a bit in the archives on balancing. Ed Windsor Oh
