I'm a believer!! 5 Months, 1 Week ago

I recently changed tires and it took a lot of weights to get them balanced.
Bike wasn't smooth at higher speeds.
Researched the dyna beads and was surprised at the mixed reviews. Some said best ever others called them snake oil!
Took all the weights off front and rear and used the suggested amount of dyna beads.
Just got back from 400 mile ride , WOW what a difference!! No mirror shake and really smooth!!
Also got caught in a couple of rain storms, really like how the commander ll handled the wet roads. Very stable on wet roads.

I went with RideOn tire sealant. I first ran Dyna beads but switched to RIdeOn. Same feeling but when changing the tires no beads falling all over the place.

I run Dyna beads and rides smooth as silk. Still wonder how those little beads do that.

getting ready to order some Ride-On, the instructions say 8 Ounces for front tire and 9 ounces for rear tire. The bottles of Ride-on are 8 ounces. Can I get by with just using one bottle per tire?

If you look in the directions, you'll see they recommend you add 25% more to each tire, if you want some amount of puncture protection and balancing combined. I use three 8 ounce bottles between both tires when I do mine. 10 or 11 ounces in the front. The balance(one 8 ounce bottle and what is left in the odd bottle) in the rear.

Should the bike be on a jack or on the floor? Remove all weights prior to install correct. Thanks for the info!

Tube or tubeless, makes no difference.
Yes. Remove any weights on the wheel now.
It helps to have the weight off the tire, because you'll remove the valve core to add the RideOn, and the tire will go flat. At the very least, rotate the tire to 3:30 or 7:30 before removing the valve core, so you can get the liquid on the inside.
Reinflate the tires, and go for a ride so the RideOn will distribute itself around the inside surfaces.

I'm using Ride On for the sake the sealing properties, but Dyna Beads should still balance.
The videos explaining the principle is interesting.
I've never heard bad things about either, where did you hear negatives?
