[QUOTE="old&slow, post: 574163, member: 13812"] OK ,, There's nothing wrong with doing a job right ... (actually, I was just poking fun) I took my CBR into the shop one time ,, had a bit of a 55 mph shake with it ,, told the service guy I thought I needed the head bearing checked,,, he ask who balanced the front tire ( had maybe 500 + miles on it) I said I did,,, so he wanted to check on his computer balance machine,, found out it was less than a .5g off ,, I asked if that was much ,,, he said it wasn't worth worrying about.. ( no idea what a gram is ,, I work with lbs. ,,,oz. ,,, and grains) after several other checks ,, he found out the head bearing needed adjusted... And thanks for the link ,, I'm wanting to upgrade my homemade set-up ,,, figure with a new hi-tech bike ,,maybe I should have something other than boards ,, chewing gum and bailing wire... and runout ,,,, is that running to the frig. for another beer while the tire is still spinning ??? ( still kidding) [/QUOTE]
