It's important to keep your ATV in good working order, and that includes making sure the wheels are properly balanced. Balancing ATV wheels is not difficult, but it is important to do it correctly. Here's a look at what you need to know about balancing ATV wheels.
The first step is to remove the wheel from the ATV. This can usually be done by loosening the lug nuts and then lifting the wheel off. Once the wheel is off, take it to a workbench or other flat surface.
Next, you'll need to find the center of gravity for the wheel. To do this, simply Suspend The Wheel Horizontally From Its Center Using A String Or Similar Method. Once you have found the center of gravity, mark it with a pencil or marker so you'll know where to place your weights later on.
Now it's time to add weights to the wheel. The goal is to add just enough weight so that when the wheel is spinning, it will be perfectly balanced. You'll want to attach weights evenly around the circumference of the wheel, and as close to the center of gravity as possible. There are special adhesive-backed weights made specifically for this purpose, but you can also use washers or other small objects if necessary. Just be sure whatever you use won't come loose whilethe wheel is spinning!
Once all of your weights are in place, re-install The Wheel On The ATV And Tighten The Lug Nuts To Secure It In Place.. Now take your ATV out for a spin and see how smoothly it rides!
