I wish I had known they were installing these at Wing Ding before I left. Anyway, found the ride to be smooth and stable. The handlebar oscillations were really bad after a new front tire install last fall. Had the balance checked when the Centramatics were installed, didn't find anything wrong with wheel balance. Rode to Des Moines and back with no problems. For some reason, when I load the bike and use the Tuff Linx case in back, the wobble all but disappears. Got to Des Moines and noted a great improvement in the wobble at low speed, better than when I left! Took the rider ed course doing slaloms and turns and all at low speeds without a problem. Did the wheel balancers contribute to the improvement? Perhaps, it's hard to say. Was the ride noticeably smoother? Maybe. Is it worth the cost? I'd say yes since anything that happens to throw off the wheel balance is automatically corrected. Need to see what happens as the tires wear more. Will update review after I've had them a few months. |

I have had the centramatic wheel balancer (black model) on my trike for over eight months now. Had it installed on a tire with about 6,000 miles on it really didn't notice that much difference. When I had a new tire installed Dunlop Elite 3 I did feel an improvement along the highway but not real slow speed 3-5 mph. I'll still recommend using the wheel balancer |

Just got back from a 700-mile trip to Florida. Only trip since I had the Centramatic Wheel Balancers installed. I use a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) so I can testify that the operating temperature of my front tire has decreased. Additionally, I noticed a significant difference the in handling of my GL 1800 at all speeds! They really seem to work as advertised, the real test is extending the tire tread. If they extend my tire tread, that alone will be worth the price. |

I just installed my new set this week and took her for an extended spin. Wow, what a difference! Now instead of sort of dreading the ride to Des Moines for Wing Ding, I am really looking forward to it. Two back-to-back 500 mile days are going to be fun.

I bought the black powder coated model when they first came out. The improvement in ride, handling, and reduced fatigue was impressive. I didn't like the look of the black ones on the bike without rotor covers so I sold them and replaced them with a set of the stainless. Same great ride and great looking!! |

I had a set of these put on a while back. My first impresssion was "not worth the money". Then While I was cleaning the wheels I noticed there was still a wheel weight on the rim. You know the "clip-on" style. The weight was loose and moving within the rim on the ridge. I removed all of the wheel weights and now the balancers are great. Very smooth! I recommend removing all wheel weights after you install these!That was the problem I had. |

I just installed these and all I can say is WOW!!! The bike rides smoother and feels more grounded in the turns! They aren't cheap, but definitely work as advertised! For all the nay sayers out there, try a bike that has them and decide for yourself. For me, a great product and highly recommended! |
