I can't remember. How many Dyna Beads go in the front and rear tires (MC tires)?
When I did this a while back, I think I put different amounts in, front and back.
I think maybe 2 oz in front and 3 oz in the rear. ???

How easy is it to put beads in the front tire with tire on bike and 90 degree metal valve?

Its not hard. I have a little plastic bottle with a clear hose on it. Just takes a little patience. I think if one had something like a little engraver or something to vibrate the tire valve it would go really quick. |

Very easy! If you have a compressor, it makes it even easier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AaPu2IZy8c |

Those things are so small I lost count when putting them in. Probably in the thousands though.

I finally got tired of coaxing them through the valve stem,, I just break a bead and pour them in. You do need to be careful of how you do it, so that even one bead does not get between the tire bead and rim.

Too funny! It was only a matter of time. Those things are so small I lost count when putting them in. Probably in the thousands though.

Its not hard. I have a little plastic bottle with a clear hose on it. Just takes a little patience. I think if one had something like a little engraver or something to vibrate the tire valve it would go really quick.  Borrow the girlfriend/wife's vibrator. Works good. Hold against the hose or stem to excite the beads so they flow. or This is how I will do it next time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AaPu2IZy8c |
