I run some beads in my 37" Goodyears and they work very well! Never balanced anything either. It's amazing how the little things do so much.

As for motorcycle tires, I never considered that. I always used stick on weights when I balanced my tires, but since it's possible to lose them, I like the idea of internal balance.

Darrin, you run Avons? What do you think of them on your bike? I was either going to go with a decent set of Dunlops or try Metzlers on my next set. I've always used Dunlops and like them, their radial D205s were the absolute BEST tire I ever run on a bike! Too bad they don't make a size for the Harley.

Anyway, since I always guessed at how much weight to put in, that chart will come in very handy. Thanks!!!!!

I've had Centramatics for years. The originals stopped working (the material inside must have fused together after many miles) the folks at Centramatic sent me a new set for free. Can't beat that customer service.
