Gas_Up_Lets_Go is on a distinguished road
There is a guy on Fleabagbay selling a balancing spindle for around �45, weights cost �2 a strip and the proccess is very straigh forward. I go through tyres on my TTR as if I had shares in Michelin, so rather than pay �10 - �20 every time to get new ones fitted I purchased a bead breaker (I run a slightly oversized tyre so I do need help to bread the bead) and a balancing spindle.

Not worth the investment for everyone - but worth a thought ?
