| I have been using these in all my motorcycle tires for the last six years. they increased the life of all the front tires.They reduce cupping form conventional balancing. I haven't found a tire that doesn't cup. Bridgestone used to make a good tire but they are junk compared to Michelin Pilot on the front of a trike. I have used beads in the two wheeler with improved tire wear. I always install beads when mounting tires for friends. The last two sets I installed the guys called me after and said "what an improvement" |

| The beads were easy to install if you follow instructions. Had just installed new front tire after having flat tire. Rode for a few weeks without any type of balancing on new tire and felt no vibration. Installed beads and really felt no difference. Was hoping for better wear if nothing else. About third time checking my air pressure a bead stuck in valve core. Lucky I was home and was able to use compressor to dislodge bead. Now every time I put air in I have to make sure I have spray bottle with soapy water and air supply just in case. It's not worth the hassle. Will break tires down and get rid of beads. |

| I installed these beads and a new tire in 2015 prior to going to Alaska on my trike. The initial ride appeared to be somewhat smoother. I traveled on some of the worse roads on the planet in British Columbia, the Yukon and Alaska. About 7500 miles into the tip, I noted the front tire starting to cup. At 9500 miles, it was necessary to change out the front tire. I use the Bridgestone Battex tire and I have gotten as much as 20k miles+ on a front tire. I don't know if the cupping was because of the beads or my fault, being underinflated. A heads up, these beads are messy. The tire changer had to clean the crushed beads inside the rim prior to installing a new Bridgestone. |

I'm about to install yet another set of Bridgestone EXEDRA's on my 2008 GW and I wouldn't do it without these beads! It's hard to find the right words but the first time I used these beads, my GW rode smooth as 'silk'. Totally different. I was amazed. I had never used the beads before and had no idea what to expect. Plus, I ended up getting more miles that expected on those tires and I ride 2-up and loaded quite often, so that was an added benefit. I'm not positive I can contribute the better tire wear to the beads alone, but it definitely made a difference And I certainly never got that KIND of ride out of my tires. Smooth, smooth, smooth. They are definitely a 5-star item in my opinion. I have heard the beads can mess up your TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) if you have one though, but I can't really speak to that for sure. Mine is a 2008 and don't have that anyway. But otherwise I'd encourage anyone to give these a try if they haven't. Safe riding! |

I am not sure what the hold up is trying them out? If you do not like them just balance them and put a ugly weight on your rims. I started using them the day I found out about them 8years. No more Cupping, No more Goldwing 35mi wobble and longer tire usages. I use 1oz in front and 2oz in the back. You will however receive the tire before the beads. Just wait for it. I never rate anything above a 4. |

After a couple of years, contemplating using Dyna Beads, I finally pulling the trigger and bought some for my GL1800. I mounted a new set of tires on my rims and roughly checked the balance. Front tire seemed almost perfect, so I added 1 oz of the beads. The back tire however was way out of balance. After a trip to the local shop to have it balanced I installed 1 oz of the beads. I have had new tires before, to say these have made a difference would be an understatement! It's like riding on glass, my bike has NEVER been so smooth. Even my wife has noticed the difference. Only time will tell if this will help with the cupping of the tires, but at this juncture I am one happy camper! |

| While I was up in Madison WI, for the Wing Ding, I fell across this product while checking out the bikes outside the show hall. Since I had already had installed the centramatic on the front of my GW 1800 MotorTrike, I decided to get some improvement for the rear tires. So far so good. I watched the install, which was very easy. After the show, I continued my ride for another two weeks. Bike handled much smoother. It also helped that I had the centramatic and super brace installed. But anything that can help extend the life a my tires is a welcome addition. |
