Dyna Beads?

Dynabeads work! I've been using them over two years. Running them in the tubed tires on my 2010 RK. I posted some pics in a previous thread of a Tube I took out when I replaced my rear tire at 17K miles. I cut the old tube open to show the Dynabead's didn't wear the inside like had been posted.

Been using Dyna Beads for going on six years, first on a suzuki c90 with bridgestones, and on an '07 FLHR with Dunlops and now Metzelers. Two vastly differently frame and drive trains and a mix of tires and never had a problem. If you have a shimmy with the beads it's usually time to change the tires from wear. The beads are so cheap that the shipping costs more than the beads so I buy enough for two or three changes at a time.

Like the man said earlier: 1 oz in the front tire and 2 oz in the rear and you are good to go. I have had beads in my Ultra for the last two tire changes and absolutely zero problems. It is nice to have your tires re- balanced each time you pull up to a stop. I can not prove it but I suspect you get increased tire mileage using beads.

They don't work well on out of round tires, I found out just recently. I put the DB in about the end of June, put them in & it made no difference. Well my rear tire (thought it was my front that I was having problems with) needed to be replaced do to no tread & I noticed that the tire was out of round. Put a new tire on w/DB & it is back to smooth as can be.
