Centramatic Wheel Balancers
I have had these on both my wife's Wings and mine for several years. I love them! They really help with tire wear and very smooth on the road. Now have them on my 2020 Wing Tour. They do exactly what they are supposed to do. One time installation and that's it. Never have to worry about getting tires balanced ever again and no ugly wheel weights. |

Easy install, goodbye balancing
Perfect fitment and install was a breeze. Ideally you'd install these at tire change time, although r/r the wheels on a 18+ is so easy don't let that deter you from installing them anyway even if you're not due for tires- only took maybe 45min start to finish. If you have a non-Tour, do yourself a favor and get a centerstand- all you need to remove both wheels is a normal floor jack put under the front edge of the oil pan to lift the front wheel also. The description that the bike feels like it's on a cloud might sound a little cliche, but it really is what comes to mind. Despite the smoothness, it also feels more planted and sure-footed on the road. Kind of hard to describe, but it's very confidence inspiring. I did not notice any adverse behavior at low speeds (below ~20mph when these become active), and ran them clear up to the 115mph governor and smooth as glass at any speed- this was on OE Bridgestone tires with about 8k on them. Being 20-25% longer tire life seems to be a very realistic expectation- and a set of GL tires usually runs around $400- these could potentially pay for themselves in just a couple sets of tires. |

Mr.
The Centramatic was easy to put on and I like the ride on the bike. The bike is new thus it rides great, hope it rides just as good after some mileage. The workmanship on the disks is questionable. As noted in the picture, one does see the covering of the beams are not perfect . |

Centramatic Wheel Balancers 5 Stars!!
I did a lot of research on the balancers and read as many reviews as I could find. Could not find anyone who had really put some miles on these. Well I hope this helps the next group of riders looking for info.I had a set of Bridgestone Excedra Max on my 2018 Goldwing DCT Tour and had Balance beads installed when new. I put on 12,500 and still could have gone another 1000 easy. The reason I wanted reviews was to find out how many more miles you could add with the Balancers because we were about to embark on the USA 4_corners. Well I bought a new set of Bridgestone Excedra Max and installed the Balancers. Just got back 6/13. We did Denver to Key West to San Ysidro CA Blaine WA to Madawaska ME and back to Denver. 13,653 miles, 40 states in 28 days. I have just under 4mm left on the rear and just under 3mm on the front. I believe I can go another 2-3k miles before wear bars. From 12k to 16k that is an awesome increase. I will write another once these tires are to the wear bars. With beads I got 12,500 to the wear bars. |

These are very easy to install. I guess they are working... I have put about 500 miles on the bike with them and it still seems to be riding smooth. I will appreciate them as I mount and balance my own tires. They will dave time on balancing. I gave them 4 stars as they have o ly been on short time. I am sure they will be five stars by the time I leave for Alaska next month. |

Worth the money
After a few miles my front tire developed a shake and would make the handlebars vibrate. After installing the balancers, it went away. They are very easy to install and will save me a lot of money when I change my tires because I won't have to pay to have them balanced. |

Centramatic Wheel Balancers for 2018+Gold Wing
Very easy install even without a lift from the videos. The factory Dunlop front tire is a little cupped since it is the original set. I was having the shimmying in the handlebars at the 45 -55 mph mark. I noticed that there was only 1 oz of wheel weight on the rear tire and nothing on the front. After about 50 miles I noticed the handlebar shimmy had been reduced by about half at the low speed. The bike is rock solid at highway speed. I will get a few more thousand miles on the original tires then put on the Bridgestones I just bought from Wingstuff. I’m pleased with how the Centramatics work so far after 100 miles and looking forward to many more smooth miles. |

seems to make a difference
Too soon in my experience to say five stars. Having never used them previously I have to say that the Goldwing seems to run smoother, albeit subtle |

Gliding on the road
Installation was easier than expected. Don't have a lift. Worked on the flat ground with the bike on the center stand. Recommend watching a YouTube video before installation. Front wheel was easy. Rear was a bit challenging without a lift. I just removed all 5 wheel nuts, removed wheel off the shaft, installed the balancer through that tight space, and reassembled the wheel. Riding is much smoother. My primary concern was to keep tires from uneven wear, coz I had to change my first set of tires when treads were still deep enough. |
