You don't want to go there with the beads!!,..Myself and other members of our motorcycle
club tried these and they just make a mess of trying to balance at all speeds...Think about
it,..your gaining momentum from a standing start and the beads find their inertia on the inside of the tire,thats fine until you slow down or come to a stop, they mix all up again and fall where ever and the beads keeps trying to find their position over and over again!.
Once a set speed is going the beads do their adjustment,but a sudden stop or a fast
increase again,you feel the imbalance...The beads would be a + at the Bonneville salt flats
but not at differential speeds,..of course that was mine and the clubs opinion.
PS,.one member had a slow leak in his tires and was finally found that the problem was with these beads had found their way in the rims bead!
