That's great news, glad you were able to get that shake out. We've been using Dyna beads for over a year now and have had great success with them.

I left dealer frustrated and decided to try Dyna Beads for balancing ang MAGIC no more shake. These are awesome.

I had them in my Dyna for a while before I wrecked it. They seemed to work pretty well and allowed me to get rid of the wheel weights. As far as an amount to use their site says to use the amount equal to what the wheel weights were. Does anybody have a good method to put them in? It was a pain in the butt the last time I used them
