Ok, got 6oz in the back - all stick on. Just got them temporary - ordering the spoke weights.. Haven't rode it yet.

I have 1.25oz in the front - will ride it how it is then see if I need more in the front.

Thanks again.

just buy another lock and put it 180 degrees from one another. If your going to add that much weight to the wheel it might as well have some function.

I am running 2 per wheel and it is as smooth as a klx is going to get with knobbies at 65mph.

I got 6oz in the back - it's smooth as silk now. Love those Trakmasters.

Thanks for the help. I'll probably end up getting more rimlocks soon.
