Thanks!

I'm not sure it works for one thing, except by adding a bunch ow weight to
your tire and adding unsprung weight, generally considered a very bad
thing in motorcycle suspensions.

Using balance weights is incredibly easy, and you can buy a whole bar of
them for 3 bucks. Why not just balance them the old fashioned way?
