ADJUSTMENT
Wheel Balancing
Wheel balancing is recommended to improve handling and
reduce vibration, especially at high road speeds.
In most cases, static balancing using
WHEEL TRUING AND
BALANCING STAND (Part No. HD-99500-80) will produce
satisfactory results. However, dynamic balancing, utilizing a
wheel spinner, can be used to produce finer tolerances for
better high-speed handling characteristics. Follow the instruc-
tions supplied with the balance machine you are using.
NOTE
If the rear wheel on the XB Firebolt will not fit on a stock
dynamic spin balance shaft, use the Carlson wheel balance
shaft (Part No. AF15).
WEIGHTS FOR CAST WHEELS
The maximum weight permissible to accomplish balance is:
●
1.0 oz. (28 g) total weight applied to the front wheel.
●
2.0 oz. (56 g) total weight applied to the rear wheel.
Wheels should be balanced to within 1/4 oz. (7 g) at 60 MPH
(97 KM/H).
See
Figure 2-35.
Use only WHEEL WEIGHTS (Part No.
43692-94Y) which have special self-adhesive backings.
Apply WHEEL WEIGHTS to the flat surface of the wheel rim.
1.
Make sure that area of application is completely clean,
dry and free of oil and grease.
2.
Remove paper backing from weight. For additional adhe-
sive strength, apply three drops of LOCTITE SUPER-
BONDER 420 to adhesive side of weight.

WARNING

WARNING
Do not install balancing weights under the stand offs for
the front brake rotor. Contact could push rotor out of
round. Braking could result in brake failure resulting in
death or serious injury.
3.
On the front wheel, locate a flat surface on the right side
of the wheel rim. On the rear wheel locate a flat surface.
Press weight firmly in place, holding for ten seconds.
4.
Allow eight hours for adhesive to cure completely before
using wheel.
NOTE
If wheel assembly is out of specification (1 oz. front, 2 oz.
rear) rotate tire on rim and rebalance until wheel is within
specification.
