A few weeks ago I posted about my front end shake on my 09 Fatboy. Determined it was on decel between 47-27 mph. Took it to dealer they tolm me nothing was loose, bearings were fine, checked tire balance said it was fine. I left dealer frustrated and decided to try Dyna Beads for balancing ang MAGIC no more shake. These are awesome.
I wonder if these beads will cure my problems also.
I had my bike checked out also and they told me it was due to a heavy bike on a 21" wheel (road tracking). I had my head bearing/alignment/brakes checked.
Apparently it constantly changes the tire balance. These beads move to where the balance is needed. I put 2 ounces in my front. I also did the same on my Dads vrod they seem to work great. I ran both bike through 0-100 mph no shake at all. Here is the link to their website. http://www.innovativebalancing.com/index.html
I will say they don't go in quite as easy as they say you just have to go real slow when putting them in.
