[QUOTE="ClassicBiker, post: 122004, member: 1632"] Provided that is where the light spot is and not heavy spot. I recently balanced my '66 Triumph wheel when I put a new tire and tube on it. The heaviest spot was not near either of the two security clamps. Once I had it so that spot didn't fall to the bottom a new spot tended to migrate to the bottom. I will admit it isn't the prettiest looking but I can put the wheel in any position and it will stay put. Twice I thought I was going about it wrong and stripped it all off and started again because of the number of solder pieces that I was putting on. I double checked to make sure the tire was seated properly on the rim. Because in comparison to when I did the Shadow's rim and my '72 Triumph rim I was using what seemed a lot and the heavy spot seemed to be moving. [/QUOTE]
