NOTE
Balance weights are available from Kawasaki dealers
in 10, 20, and 30 grams (0.35, 0.71, and 1.06 US oz).
An imbalance of less than 10 grams (0.35 US oz) will
not usually affect running stability.
Do not use four or more balance weight (more than 90
gram, 3.17 US oz). If the w heel requires an excess bal-
ance weight, disassemble the wheel to find the cause.
Install the balance weight on the rim.
Slip the weight on the rim flange by pushing or lightly ham-
mering the weight in the direction shown in the figure.
