Dyna Beads

Has anyone tried Dyna beads in their tires, if so how was your experience ?
Less vibration and a quieter ride ?

I've used them for years. Since I mount my own tires its an easy way to balance them. I have no issues with noise or vibration.
I don't use dyna bead brand. I use the smaller ceramic beads as they go through the stem easier.

I too use the miracle beads, no problems....
BUT....on several occassions I noticed that they took a little longer for the good balance to occur....

I like them. At the rate a motorcycle tire wears the balance with Stick on weights are only good for 4 to 5000 miles and then you need a rebalance to be true. Beads always adjust every time you take off.
