    YAY!!!! vibration eliminated

    so I installed new wheel bearnings and seals all the way around and took the front tire to have it rebalanced. apparently the first time the guys either didnt balance it or had no clue what they were doning.....

    but it came back and they had to put on, ready for this, 77 grams to balance it!!!! wow, but needless to say no more vibration at or above 85mph

      That's 2.7oz.!

      That's a lot for a car, let alone a bike.
      Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

        If one is that far off, there's probably a manufacturing blem somewhere. It will probably be fine to ride on, but after time, it will slowly go out of balance again. Glad you got it fixed up though so you won't be using THAT for an excuse to get out of going to the rally!

        Speaking of... are you guys staying in Eureka Springs, or riding up Saturday morning?
