Anyone seen these before? Listed as a product in the Wing World magazine, available from Wingstuff.

Seems you mount behind your rotor disc, and never remove them again.

Looks like they are a ring, which I figure is filled with the standard balancing bead.

Price kind of high for me, would rather just put the standard balancing beads in the tire. Inexpensive if you bought the 5lb jar, like I did.

Years ago similar things were available for big trucks. One outfit I drove for used beads. RIDE SAFE.
Today is the tommorow you worried about yesterday. If at first you don't succeed screw it-save it for nite check.  1964  1968 U S Navy. Two cruises off Nam.

I have Centramatic Balancers on my GW....love how smooth the ride is. Probably have had them 5-6 years now. Were a lot cheaper when I got them. Unless something changed recently, you can only get them for the front of the 1500 Valk.
The set for 1800 GW will prob work on 1800 Valk since it has the single sided swingarm.
