evenin. jus got me wheels today for me triumph and on one of the spokes theres a strange lil thing, anyone know what it is and what it does ? i cant seem t shift it but then aint really tried that hard yet.
thanks a lot :D
It's triumphs version of a wheel weight
my steamer came with em just like the one in the pic from the factory
to remove just lever it up with a screwdriver and slip it off the spoke on the slot
Like Mustang said,
originally it was there to balance the wheel,
if you are putting new boots on remove the old weight and get the wheel balanced,the new weights (if any) will more than likley be fixed in a new place and on the rim
cheers mustang and chair. itll be comin off then :D
Nothing wrong with that sort of weight - what we all used to use with steel rims.
I prefer that type of weight to the stick-ons. Dual star sells them in lead. You can also get them in chromed steel from the various Harley sources.
