Centramatic Stainless Wheel Balancers for GL1800
ITEM CODE: CTMGW100-102, SKU: CTMGW100-102

Still BS
| I wrote a negative review of this product in 08/2011. I will give Wing Stuff credit for reviewing my post and having Centramatic contact me. The Centramatic rep suggested that I may have had a bad tire (1st in 40 years), and that I should put them back on with the new tires. I waited until my next tire change with a completely different brand, I got the same result (moderate to severe vibration at 75 mph and above), but left them on mostly due to laziness. Last month I changed out my steering head bearings and replaced the front springs, still had the same vibration pattern. Decided to take them off after two rides, static balanced both wheels, it's as smooth as glass at over 100 mph (same tires). So Centramatic, if your offer reimburse me is still good, I'd love to send this scarp metal back to you. |

| This is a BS product. If you're a rider that rides at 60 mph or below, you will be okay with this product. I enjoy cruising at 75-80 mph, and it doesn't work. During a recent trip from Tampa to Charlotte, I was forced to stop and have them removed from the front wheel in South Carolina due to a very annoying intermittent vibration in the handle bars. The vibration ceased in the bars, but I could feel it in the seat. After arriving in Nashville, the vibration had become so noticable that it was ratteling my mirrors. The unbalanced rear tire with the Centramatic installed had ruined the tire and had to be replaced. After both tires had been balanced, we continued on to Chicago and back to Florida without the slightest vibration. This product is trash!!!! |
