If you are in doubt, assemble the rotor to the wheel for balancing, I would. Actually there are different types of balancing, some machines will tell the radial location and which side to put a weight on. Not sure if this applies to motorcycle wheel balancers.
Does the front wheel need the brake rotor attached to be properly balanced?
I recently crashed my bike and did some extensive damage (I plan on making a separate thread with pictures soon). I've already received all the replacement parts and have begun rebuilding.
I bought a new front wheel and tire, and I need to bring it to a shop for mounting and balancing. Obviously, I won't be riding the bike there, just bringing them the parts.
Do I give it to them with the rotor attached? Will it screw up the balance if I bolt on the rotor afterwards?

since the brake rotor will be rotating with the wheel as one unit, you should have it on the wheel for balancing.
Yes I agree would be better to balance everything togeathersince the brake rotor will be rotating with the wheel as one unit, you should have it on the wheel for balancing.
