I also added a counterweight to each of my CY 8 Cymbals. I carefully matched the counterweight to the weight of the Rubber Bar, Sensor and connection box at the front of the Roland Cymbals. A thick rubber washer insulate the weight from the plastic and a Ny-Lock nut secures them tightly in place. This accurately recreates the Real swing and movement of acoustic cymbals. Here is a picture of the weight and a short Vid showing the movement of the counter-balanced CY 8's.
