thanks @shuBen, I think I would prefer removng them.. thats a good insight though (Y) I wonder if I reduce the rear sproket it will give me better top speed too ?? right now best I can do is a 120kmh with 13 X 48 sprocket set...

@thepope oh yeah the bike accelerates like hell is on lose... love it
For sprocket setup you could try 14 or 15 in front and 47 in the rear.
But watch out and check diameters in front because 15 especially might have problem to fit because of engine housing space limitation.
Most probably you will also need another shorter chain (about 4 links less). The swingarm adjustments have normally not enough range.
But with this setup top speed will get up quite a bit if the engine has enough power to pull it. The low gear acceleration slow somewhat down. But if you don't go for real hard enduro or MX its fine. All light off road tracks can be mastered.

Easy said then done in ChinaQuote:
Alternatively you can also counter balance the rim locks
Only seen a very few motorbike blancing machine in China.
But there is no reason why you can't balanced the wheels by hand ?
Balancing by hand is not that difficult if you consider at least follwing rules:
a) weight the rim lock alone and prepare related spoke weights in same weight amount.
b) when installing the tire turn the (normally) red dot opposite of the valve. The dot marks the heaviest point of the tire.
c) then install the rim lock and a bit less counter weight at the opposite spoke.
d) do at test run to see if the wheel is still unbalanced.
e) if so, add more counter weight and try again.
If you have a spoke assembly support at home with good ball bearings it might be possible to identify the heaviest wheel points right on the device.
You guys forgot my thread... tire balancing
I used this kind of setup for years and confirmed with many that it's almost as good as any machine on the market. EVERYONE should have one.
I am going to remove the rim locks as I might not need them and vibration is too much... I am waiting for Daul sports tires to show up.....
