I believe, from what I've heard is that the overall consensus of people here, and with sportbikes in general, is that they hate them........and that they do not work as intended.

I also heard that the cruiser crowd swears by them............. (popcorn)

I ran them in my last set of tires and switched back to stick on weights, when I changed the tires as I needed to get the tires on and did not want to weight  :lol: to get another set of Dynas.  I have not felt any difference in the way the bike rides. My opinion, not worth the cost and mess they made when I changed the tires.

I tried them in my FJR tires and had serious vibes at hihway speed.  Bouht a Marc Parnes static balancer and clip on weights and have no issues, now.

I won't be tryin them again.
