I have the regular dyna beads in my D/S rear and the metz 880 up front. Over 7000 miles on the beads and liking them a lot. One place i drove for had the dyna beads on all of their tractors. That be part of the reason they are in my M/C tires.  And no out of balance feel every time i start up. Just got back a little while ago from a 160 mile ride. Pushed it to triple digits a couple of times. Smooth as can be. No issues with tire balance at all.  RIDE SAFE. |

Check the Dyna Beads home page for local distributors. My local Vulcan dealer sells them, and I have them in my D404 bias rear tire on the front, and Falken 512 CT on the rear. 7,000 miles and not a wiggle. No apparent wear or cupping on either end.

I think they're overkill. Never had a problem with any tire execpt the rear m/c tire that wore even but didn't last long when I first purchached this ever lasting machine long ago

So is the general concensus that the beads also alleviate cupping / scalloping? If so, could someone elaborate on the physics how do they do that? Just to edumacate me as I am not able to figure it out on my own  |

thanks all for your input. Any questions I had as to "how in the heck do they work?" were answered by clicking on the link I have in my original post/question here. Somewhere on the site is a video of how it all works....as I have no other frame of reference to dispute their claim....I'd say they work......JMO>  |
