From: Jonathan Race <jrace@bitstorm.net> To: sun-tech@sbcglobal.net Sirs: This is a note to describe to you the amazing difference that your product has made for my 1995 Harley-Davidson FXSTC Softail Custom. I recently purchased two units, a CL200 and a SC404 for my bike at Bike Week in Daytona Beach after seeing your booth and talking to the representative. Initially, I was a little skeptical because the vibration dampers I was looking into cost over $400 and since your products were remarkably less expensive, I was taking a cautious approach. I have always been a big believer in "you get what you pay for". However, I not only got what I paid for.... but more than I ever expected! It took me several weeks to get around to installing the Balance Masters®, but when I did, I immediately noticed a significant reduction in running vibration. I don't have any figures, but going literally "by the seat of my pants" I would say that the vibration in my bike is less than half of what it initially was. Likewise, it felt as if I were travelling 20mph less at speed - 70mph now felt like 50. The level of change was that dramatic. If you ever get around to producing one of your products for the wheels on my bike that can be added on, let me know right away. I'll buy it in an instant! Furthermore, I got an additional surprise. When I went back through my paperwork for your products to pass on the information to my friends, I happened to notice the business card of the representative at the booth - specifically the word "President" under his name. Now I'm even more impressed than ever. Respectfully, Jonathan Race Acta Non Verba - Deeds Not Words Reply to: jrace at bitstorm dot net

To the crew at Balance Masters®,
I drive a '96 Sportster that has been bored, cammed, performance exhaust and ignition among other upgrades.
I hoped that your Balance Master installed in my crank shaft would at least make my Sportster still drivable.
Boy, was I in for a surprise!
Your Balance Master has made the difference between riding occasionally to wanting to get out there all the time.
The difference is dramatic!
The question is why doesn't the factory do this for all their bikes?
I feel your product is the best investment any Harley owner could make in their machine.
Thanks again for a great product.
My best always,
Michael M. Dyber

To Whom It May Concern:
The Balance Master system has increased tire & suspension
component life up to 30% on the Hummer®. The customers report
a much smoother ride and no more balancing hassles every couple
of months. Our customers have actually been the best salesmen
for the balancers. When one Hummer owner buys a set he tells
his friends and so on. We have been very pleased with the sales
and customer satisfaction. I recommend them to all our customers.

Chris,
After owning three Hummers and trying to tame the highway ride with numerous methods, I am very fortunate to have met you at Quartzite Arizona in February 1997.
Your product, "Balance Masters®" is fantastic!!! I have tried other on the wheel balancers and found that they did not work well at taming the ride on my Hummers. Quite simply, "little balls in oil," do not do the job. . Your method of using "MERCURY" is great. I believe it clearly flows more evenly and is the reason your product is so superior to anything else I have ever seen or used!!
After installing your product on my Hummer, I took a short ride with my son, and believe me, the ride was so improved we could not believe it!! Now when we ride down the road, anything that is in the center console area does not rattle and vibrate like it used to before installing Balance Masters®.
You clearly have a GREAT solution to taming the ride a Hummer gives on the highway. If you would like to have anyone call me for a reference on the product they can call 1-941-352-8971.
Thank you, and I wish you GREAT SUCCESS with this product.

We have been applying your products
to the Harleys we buy and sell to give the customer the smoothest
ride posible. Even on the rubber-mounts, Balance Masters® active
balancing system makes the difference between a 400 mile touring
day, fatigued, with tingling hands and feet, or a 600 mile day...arriving
at your destination ready to party! We've seen this product alone,
solely responsible for eliminating stress cracks at bolt holes
in fenders and accessories. Think what it could mean toward extending
the life of your hard-mounted Softail!

Suntech,
Hi-Tech Custom highly recommends having your flywheels balanced by Suntech. You will not get a smoother ride with anything else.

Chris,
Please install mercury balancers in S&S flywheel and return to me.
I have 3 out of the 4 motors balanced with liquid mercury on the road now, with excellent results.
I hope to do lots more in the future as everyone is really impressed with the ones that are running.
Thank You,
Pudgy

Dear Sir:
Re: 1990 Heritage Softail
As I mentioned in my phone call of today, after removing balancer with my compensating sprocket, I noticed a big bulge in the rubber. When I tried to even out the lump, the rubber came lose. The one on my clutch works and looks fine. Now riding my bike without the front balancer, I feel vibrations that weren't there before.
So your balancers do work well. I was the first in my area to use balancers when I saw them in a bike magazine many years ago. I had phoned my order in and the first two you sent were wrong. The third one fit so I mailed back the other two. Then the very same happened with the clutch balancers, but once I had both of them on the bike, I could feel the difference - it was much smoother. I could actually see out of my mirrors. My friends tried my bike and ordered their own from our dealer.
A couple of my HOG club members had bought Fisher balancers and had problems with them, so after installing yours, they wished they had bought them in the first place. They are much happier with yours.
I am sending back the disc and rubber hoping that you can fix or replace.
Thank you from a long-time believer and user.
Sincerely,
Gary Horne

Hey! Just want to tell you I built a one-of-a-kind 96 inch stroker rubber mount tribute Dale Earnhardt Harley and I got him to autograph it. The only thing that's worth more than the autograph is your Balance Master!

I want to thank you for the quick service in shipping the clutch balancer.
I have been riding motorcycles since 1971. I have owned about 25 motorcycles, 7 or 8 of which were Harley's. I have always liked the light weight Sportster ( I had two previous to my current 1999 custom 1200) but found the vibration too tiring over long distances. When we met Chris Gamble at the show we were skeptical about the benefits of your Balance Masters® products. I want to happily report that I have tried my Sportster since the installation at all speeds and through all gears and I am completely surprised and amazed with the positive results. There is no way to measure the degree of reduction in vibration and I know that I am being subjective but from many years of motorcycling experience I would estimate that the vibration reduction is in the area of 70 to 80 percent. That is quite an accomplishment. You can be sure that I will spread the word about this really worthwhile product.

I built a 105 ci HD engine (installed in a rigid motor 1996 FLSTF) and used your dynamic flywheel balancer, it worked very well. Since dyno tuning it, changing the timing, etc. for max power there is now slightly more vibration. The RPM's hit 6200 during testing; could this have damaged the flywheel balancer?
It's possible that with the changed timing I am just feeling the firing pulses more.
Assuming that you don't feel that the RPM level damaged the flywheel balancer and the increased vibration is a result of the adjusted timing; would installation of a balance master for the clutch offer noticeable improvement?
The clutch has NEVER had a balance job done to it and this WILL vibrate WORSE than the engine.
What is the cost of the clutch balancer?
You make a good product, my bike (even now) is smoother than it was with the original HD engine and it is much larger wit increased stroke.
Blaine SwaffordHi Blaine
The change in R.P.M. will not hurt the Balnce Master and YES the Clutch Balancer WILL help the bike. If your clutch is stock then the part is a CL200 at $83.00. Call us and ask for Paula Baker. She will make you a deal.
Thanks, Chris
I originally questioned the effectiveness of your active balancer, but since the bike has been on the road now for about 7,000 miles I have really appreciated it, and am happy to support your product.
I will forward this to Jon Beck to order the balancer. Thanks again for the quick response.
Jon: I get a little clutch slippage from time to time, makes a screetch before it goes. I know you put in modified clutch plates, but do you think we might need a stronger clutch spring??
If this affects the choice of a balancer model lets figure it out before we order the clutch balancer.
I guess this means we are going to install some model of sun balancer on the clutch. If it works as well as they say; it will be well worth it. Thanks for giving us a deal, Jon should get to know Paula Baker since he should be selling lots of balancers now.
Blaine Swafford
Note: Jon Beck with Hannon's V Twin in Scotts Valley, CA is the actual engine builder and should get the credit for it. Jon Static balanced the engine and did lots of other good stuff besides installing the balancer.

Att: Chris Gamble
In 1998 you balanced a right side from a set of 4 1/2" S&S wheels for my 1978 Shovel 86 cu inch.
Prior to this, I rode it for ten years as a 80 cu inch bal. at 60%.
With the mercury bladder installed, it is much smoother at all speeds. I couldn't ask for any better.
I have a 1997 Heritage with normal vibration and I want to increase the cubes to 89". My question is, do I purchase S&S wheels with 60% static and then send to you, or will the bladder be sufficient? Please call or fax.
Thank you
James Hall

Dear Mr. Doyle,
I am writing in regard to my recent purchase of a set of Balance
Master wheel balancers and I would like to tell you how satisfied
I am with your product.
When I first saw your display at the truck show inMoncton and considered purchasing your product, I have to admit that I was skeptical that they would live up to your claims. As a true test of your product, I reinstalled a set of Bridgestone tires that I had removed after only 18,000 miles of wear because they had not been seated correctly on the rims at the tire dealer on installation and went out of round. These tires have been reinstalled with your balancers and I am pleased to report that after 20,000+ miles, they are working great.(No out of balance, no shimmy, and no front end problems.)
I would also like to note that I am very pleased with the excellent customer service with which I was provided. There were no hidden costs or surprises on delivery and the pricing was exactly as per our phone conversation.
I will highly recommend this product and your company to my colleagues and would like to thank you for providing a great service and an excellent product in a day and age when both are rare.
Sincerely,
Robert Patriquin
