View Full Version : Re-using Fe stickons?

I've seen the shops re-use clipons that are in good shape.

I mount and balance my own motorcycle tires. I also mount and balance the motorcycle tires for all my family and some of my friends.

I've got a small box full of Fe stickons now that I could use to find a use for. I'm thinking I could easily remove the old adhesive and get some of that high strength double stick tape to re-use them.

Trackday safety rules say you have to cover your wheel weights with duct tape, and out of habit I always tape over my motorcycle wheel weights.

Anyone else do this?

I had some FE stickons on my truck start flopping so I siliconed them back on. Worked good.
Course I didn't drive my truck for a day or so.

I might cut corners on a 4 wheeler but not on a bike. You only got 2 wheels. IMO

I have ridden motorcycles since age 13 and I am now 63. I would not use a product on either of my "TWO WHEELS" that was used and subject to hit me in my noggin at speed. I have had both tires blow at speed and that is enough fun without adding to it.
