the wheel balencer from Marc Parnes works great for single sided wheels. I built a changing machine from about 30 bucks worth of steel and parts. Forked over 90 bucks for a coats 220 iron as it would have taken me forever ot make one. By all means change your own tires.

thanks to all for the responses; bike went down hard on the right side and slid. the cover that was broken was the pulsar cover, the next one ahead of the clutch cover which was not scratched. Changed the dot 4 in the clutch system, bike is running new mobil 1 15 50 mileage 9400. I like the shoei idea so much i did that two; the old one is on my trophy shelf. pics of the bike are here... www.mvsunline.com/bambi

thanks for the response, when bike went down never put a scratch on left side. Rattle is pretty loud for few seconds, then gradually diminishs. Changed clutch fluid, works fine bike rides fine so I guess i will ride it like i stole it. Steve

:?: I have a 00 bird, really like the machine, mostly stock except 2bro carbon cans. Aug 6 after installing new suspension bits (ohlins shock gold valves springs) I took it for test ride on favorite local back road... next thing I remember is being picked up at e room. Anyhow smacked deer, bike went down on right side and slid 95 feet up a 6% grade. Lucked out, no frame damage and only engine damage was broken pulsar cover. Ever since then I have a cold engine rattle which is in the clutch circuit somewhere as I can pull in the clutch lever and it goes away and it diminishs to nothing after warm up. Any ideas? Thanks Steve.
