Does anyone have information on a wheel balancing tool for the 2009 Piaggio MP3 500?
I see references to Marc Parnes tool but not sure which one I should order and if I need to order addition cones to for the rear or front wheel.
Anyone have the specifics on this?
Thanks in advance.

Shoot Marc Parnes an email. He's super responsive. I've bought three kits from him, with questions before each. Good guy.

I have one if you want to buy it...
It has the extra adapter for the MP3 wheels.

I never use it since I use CounterAct Balance Beads.
Message me and make me an offer.

Madison - Thank you, I did make contact with Marc.
Keith - Sorry, I ordered the MP3A kit before I saw your post.

No Problem...
What did you Pay, so I can figure out what to sell mine for ?
So you know there is a fellow on ebay that sells "Lead Weights".
They stick very well, he makes them...
You typically can only find the Aluminum ones these days.

I think they are actually iron/steel. Possibly chrome plated.
Aluminum weights would be rather largish.

These are truly Lead, I bought a bunch from this guy because they are home made, he has molds and pours the hot led into them... Attaches the double sided tape. I tried the Aluminum ones, and it took to many.

Keith,

I got these weights from Amazon: Motion Pro 08-0553 Black Steel 1/8 oz. Wheel Weight

they are not ALUMINUM they are steel No body make ALUMINUM weights, the steel weights are taking place of the lead as its an epa thing to reduce lead usage.

Surely you can get those from any tire dealer? Here you just ask the guys doing the work and they'll give you a few This sound like the smartest solution.

Just sayin...

1/4 oz lead stick on weight strips are getting harder and harder to find. I do ALOT of tires and hate the steel weights they have today.
I do have a few sources for lead ones but most folks don't buy them by the box like I do. they normally want or need just a strip or 2.

I had problems with Motion Pro (Non Black ones), the tape did not hold.
I switched to the 3M Double sided and that worked.
It just took to many of those to accomplish a balance compared to Lead Weights. Some of these Piaggio Rims require a lot of weight.
