Thanks for the link Pete. I am going to do some thinking and more research on this. I have not had a problem with the balance, but as the ad says, it takes a while. The dang sticky weights I use sure do not add to the bikes finer side.

I was thinking the same thing.Why have ugly weights on.Plus you would'nt need a balancing stand.They fit inside the tube so no mess.The only problem is everytime you change tires you would need to buy more of it(really not a problem)

Motorcycle Consumer News tested these a couple of months back. Bottom line; don't waste your money.
