Doug:

For us to be able to draw any conclusions from this poll, don't we need to also need to know whether the responder actually owns that type of vehicle?  For example:

Let's say 30 people out of 100 submitting a reply actually own a motorcycle. Of these 30, only 10 of them balance their tires.  The results from the poll are going to say 10% / (10).

Or if 10 people out of 100 own motorcycles, and every one of them balances their tires, the results are also going to say 10% / (10).

I like the idea of a poll regarding tire balancing, I am just not sure if the way it is structured, it is going to tell us anything.

Edit:  Or maybe I'm just not understanding how this is set up.  Right now it looks like 12 votes submitted, 12 say they balance the tires on their cars (seems normal), but it lists the percentage as only 35.3%.    ???
If you're going to be dumb, you gotta be tough.

nobody said it was an exact science.......I was just looking to get a ballpark showing of real world ballancers vs non ballancers.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, a good Reisling in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming:  WOO HOO, what a ride
