wieght behing router cover

[OrlinEngh]

what is the reason for the wieght on the back of the front brake router cover. I took covers off and took it for a ride and I dont notice anything diffrent. Mine are scratched up and am thinking I like the looks with out them on there.

I took mine off when I did the 1st tire change and never put it back on, I didn't notice a difference. Now I have an 18" Stratoliner front wheel and it came with a "less intrusive" weight so I put it on when installing the tire, again I did not notice a difference.

I don't know the answer, but I took mine off years ago when I realized that there were beautiful machined rotors behind those boring ugly covers, and like you didn't notice a difference.
