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!

Bluesugar. Thanks for the info!! What your describing makes sense.

Most bikes and some of our cars can accelerate and decelerate very fast so what you describe may be reason to avoid.

Is it just HARD accel/decel that creates the issue or would it still be an issue even in something with slow accel/decel like an 18 wheeler?
