Shakey Front end

[tbeercheck]

Trying to work the bugs out on my doodlebug project. At about 20 MPH she shakes a lot . I did some research on this site ,post from 2007/2009 came up. Talked about the spacer problem on front fork . I see that and will fix . It was also mentioned about possibly front tire being unbalanced. These are the original doodlebug tires, off-road style. I could see this being an issue .how do you balance one of these small tires?

You balance them the same way you balance a go kart tire. It is a static balance and you use stick on weights. Google how to balance a go kart tire and you will see what it takes. If you have a kart shop near they could balance it for you. But before balance I would think the tire is out of round from sitting or maybe even trying to seperate if they are originals. Hope this helps.

Ok so I added some washers to the neck of the front fork and that helped a lot . Looked a lot closer at the front tier , its crap. My question is these tires say that their tubeless. But I've also heard that I should run tubes in them. Looking for some opinions from the professionals .
