another ? about dyna beads

I've been reading how a lot have had good luck with the dyna beads. I have to change rear tire on FLHTC and going to put the beads in. I would like to know how many ounces everybody is putting in their tires for the front and rear.

According to the DynaBeads website, it calls for 1 oz in the front and 2 oz in the rear. That's what I went with.

Got'em in my RG tires, no problems. However, the dealer asked if I wanted my front changed since it is getting near change time. I asked if they knew how to change the tire with the beads in. You'd have thought the devil showed up to church. So now I will be changing my own tires and I plan on putting them in the other bikes when the time comes.

I am thinking about putting Dyna Beads in my 2005 RK. Isn't the MT90B16 front tire the same as a 130mm tire? If so, the dyna bead site calls for 2oz in the front as well.
