I had a pair of Michelin Commander II's put on a few months back. I'm just now noticing that the beads have slow leaks.
I put 50psi in the front and rear and sprayed them with soapy water for my answer.

Any Ideas on how to remedy this?

Like what's the max air pressure to put in the tires to try and make them seat?

Don't know about using a sealer as I have Dyna Beads in them and I see that being a mess.

Never had a problem with tires before and They have always been Dunlop's till now 5 or 6 sets.

Never used a sealer before and the rim interiors are clean.

These are also solid OEM Mag rims and not spoke.

Thanks.

If you have dyna beads, you cannot put any sealer in.

Break the beads, clean the wheel/bead seating surface very clean, use a bead sealer and reseat the beads.

There aren't any other short cuts.

 

Thanks man!

Inside I already knew that, just didn't want to admit it. lol
On cars or trucks is one thing sorts easy peasy, but it will be a bitch on the bike. Luckily I have a pretty full shop here at the house. With large C-clamps and vises. I will try to do it with the bike on the lift, if that doesn't work I'll remove the rims and use the Vise.

Not really a problem as they are real slow leaks so I can wait till winter to do it. I'll just make sure to check them everyday.

Thanks again for sealing my fate. lol

 

Just pull the wheels off.
It will give you an opportunity to clean the whole wheel while it is off.

C-clamps will definitely work on the front. On the rear, look at you-tube for some ideas to break the bead.

Reseating the beads can be done easily old school with starter fluid.

 

Will do.

Thanks again.

 

Just an idea but maybe instead of the Dyna Beads try using Ride On, it's duo purpose, it balances and stops small leaks and it's also used by some of the other members here as well.
