Dyna Beads

Has anyone tried these yet? I've got a friend that swears by them. I guess I'm about ready to part with a few bucks and try them in the Goldwings tires. http://www.innovativebalancing.com/

I've heard that they were better than the discovery of fire, and that they are no more than snake oil. About equally on each side. I can't see how they really help, unless you only ride long highway miles. Otherwise, they're falling each time you stop, and having to "rebalance" the tire. In the meanwhile, you are getting sub-optimal wear on your tires.

I have them in all 3 of my bikes. I have not logged a lot of miles yet, but Ill keep you posted. So far smooth as glass, Have not noticed any sounds when stopping. (My bikes are to loud I guess) Also have not noticed vibration at low speed. I did ride one of the bikes on old tires with weights and then switched over to the beads when I put new tires on. Again, the bike feels smoother, but who knows.

Ill keep you poested if you like

That'll be great. I'm considering them because after having new tires mounted and balanced, I'm noticing a slight vibration @ 25-30mph. Most of my driving is cruising at highway speeds on the G-wing, I use Mrs Mini's scooter for short hops and around town, when I can pry it away from her.

If you want to try it cheaper.

JC Whintey used to have something simmilar back in the early 80's. No first hand experience but I always thought it was snake oil.

I refuse to stick beads anywhere that they don't belong.
