Seriously, don't forget to take into account that these wheels are running at speeds they were NOT designed for. Make sure anything you attach to them can handle the speeds.

I think if the weights will work on sport bikes that they will be fine on a robot wheel
a 2006 yzf r6 has a top engine rpm of around 21,000RPM. The sixth gear reduction ratio is 1.074. Dividing 21,000RPM/1.074 will produce the RPM of the rear wheel. This comes out to be 19,553RPM. I don't think the shooter wheel is hitting that speed lol Now i realize you may do the math and realize nobody ever drives that fast but when the bike is doing 250MPH, people do drive that fast on the track, the rear wheel is spinning at abut 3,703RPM which is faster then any shooter wheel is spinning. So Andrew you are just fine using wheel weights
