    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • This forum is for placing reviews for parts, accessories, gear and service as it relates to your GS motorcycle. The key here is "GS Related". There is a bit of latitude here but we don't want to see a review on Maytag washers just because that's what you use to clean your riding jacket in.

    Keep your review as factual as possible and please refrain from personal attacks. Posted articles will be reviewed by the Editors and may be removed at their discretion.

    So let's make this a useful addition to the forum! A special pat on the back goes to Hap Call for coming up with this great idea.

    The views expressed in this forum are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of "The GSResources" or the editors.

Dyna Beads offers Tire Balancing Solutions
Logo3D100x100.jpg


Wheel weights have been around for many years, but are no longer the only solution for trucks, commercial vehicles and motorcycles. We want you to get the highest possible tire mileage by using our products.
The way we do this is by offering a Dynamic Balancing Solution, a high-density ceramic bead that, when easily installed, continuously balances your tires as you drive. The amount of material will distribute itself in weight and position dependent on the balance requirements of the individual tire.
The result is a smooth, vibration-free ride, derived from our balancing media that is always repositioning itself as the tire wears. If you own a pickup truck, commercial truck, motorhome, RV, tractor trailer, motorcycle, or similar vehicle, and want to get rid of those wheel vibration and tire cupping problems, then you need to move up to Dyna Beads?!
 
Yeah I've used it. Seemed to work OK. I also tried BBs, which didn't work so well. All in all I think I'm back to the conventional weights camp. I just feel a little better about the tried-and-true method, I suppose.
 
I picked up their 'bike kit' which is enough product for 2 tires + the applicator. I used it in the new front tire last season with good results. Patience is required, esp when running tubes in the tires, as the tiny beads take a while to get through. Works well though...I took all the weights off the wheel, with no adverse effects.
Tony.
 
I have the beads in my Camry tires and they work OK even though my tires are 60 aspect ratio and they don't recommend using the beads in tires with a lower aspect ratio than 70.

When I get new tires for my GS I will put them on myself and try balancing with the beads and will give a report on how they work. I have a large supply because I bought them to use in my dually pickup tires but have not used them for any tires besides the Camry.
 
I use them in all my bike's. Work great. Smooth ride and better wear than with lead weights.
 
Love em! Haven't paid for tire mounting/balancing for 3 or 4 tires now. Very smooth ride. When you get ready to remove them from an old tire, secure a paper towel over the end of your shop vac hose. Push enough in to make a cup and it will suck them up and hold them till you turn the vacuum off to drop them into a container. :grin:
