[QUOTE="Gitbox, post: 1311712, member: 86950"] I've had balance beads in my tires for the last three sets and had no issues, but now I think they might not be doing such a great job. I rode another FJR with weights on the wheels and it was smooth as silk over 70 MPH. I put my tires with beads in them on that same bike and now it has vibrations at those speeds. It may be the tires themselves but I'm thinking that more likely the beads aren't effective at higher speeds. The bummer is that the only way to test that theory is to remove the beads and then static balance the wheels. Is there an easy way to remove the beads without removing the whole tire? [/QUOTE]
