I bought this product few months ago and a wait until I put my GL 1800 for 12,000km service. I ask the technician to unstall the balancer and the WE later I ran a 350km trip. WHAT A DIFFERENCE !!! GREAT and very confortable, no more vibration. DO NOT LOOK AT PRICE, THIS IS A FANTASTIC PRODUCT. Jean-Luc, Normandy / FRANCE |

Ditto as below reviewers. Great idea! Talked to factory today & they are NOT available for Trikes yet, but do show that option here. ? |

I added these and note an immediate difference. Then I went on a 1,991 km ride. The bike runs smooth, there are no vibrations through the handle bars. Even the navigator (wife) comments that the ride is smooth. |

After reading the reviews and grumbling about the price I purchased a set of these balancers. I had about 7000 miles on my original tires and had noticed some cupping especially in front. After installing the Centramatic balancers I also noticed as others have how smooth the ride is and confident the cornering has become. There is no vibration or wobble what so ever. I have put about 600 miles on the Wing since the balancers have been installeh and the cupping is evening out. |

Ok I've had the wheel balancers on now for a couple of months. the higher the speed the smoother the ride. I too can hear the bearings however it is only when I am backing or moving forward very slowly. No problem with that. I have had no problem with paint. My roter covers conceal the balancers. It is a product worth spending the money on. Headed on a 3 day ride this weekend...really looking forward to it now! |

I put another 200 or so miles on the wheel balancers. Yes - definately a difference and a smooth ride. As per my earlier review, you can hear the beads sloshing around a bit at slower speeds ( |

In my past review I gave 3 stars because the paint was peeling off. The company contacted me, after reading the review and explained they did have a bad batch go out. They sent me another set, overnight, and I had them installed. They work great. No wheel weights on the wheels and at 50 or 90 mph the wing is as smooth as glass. They work great. The local city police department here use Goldwings as their police motorcycles and have installed a set on one of the traffic bikes. I talked to one of the traffic cops and he said they are great and hope to get them on all the police wings. |

Just installed (front and rear), along with new front brake pads. Put 50 miles on them this morning; the ride is very smooth compared to before the installation. I am still testing, but feel they perform better than just "good." They make some noise - I can hear the beads slosh around inside the tubes at As of today, I would say a good purchase. The "ride" itself is very good. I will update my post once I have more experience under my belt. |

well the new black powder coated finish on these wheel balancers are really nice. I have not installed them yet but from what others say about the ride I am looking forward to it. I am looking forward to a good season. |

I have had my Centramatic balancer on for about 5 months now. After installing, I noticed a significant difference in the handling of the bike. Having put them on my own bike, about 6 other Goldwinger have had me install them on their bikes. They all have the same positive impressions. Some here have expressed comments about the costs of the balancers. Well, I would counter that we all spend a lot of money on "safety chrome" and think nothing of it. Here is a chance to spend some money on something that will give one a ROI and at the same time there is a side benifit of improved handling and tire longivity. Money well spent! Buckskin |

The principle behind the product is dead on. Balancing your tire through it’s life has to be a good thing. However, keeping cost in mind, one has to wonder the benefit that this product has versus adding 4 Oz of balancing beads. It would be great to have testing done against both of these products. One cost you $10 bucks every tire change while the other cost $250 but only once. It's hard to think of my next 25 tire change outs before I break even. |

Just installed the new powder coated balancers on my 2006 goldwing. So far they work great with the balancing of the tires, will see what kind of milage I get out of the Bridgestones I installed with them. Took on the challenge to change my own tires with a good friend who is also a GWRRA associate, and he showed me alot about installing tires, make sure you know what you are doing before you try this yourself. Would have been nice if they had paperwork or stamps in the center that states which side goes next to the rim. I read many reviews about the paint problems others were having, and I love the powder coat, will see how they hold up to the hear and rain of the South Carolina weather. Will keep you informed with the status. |
