    Friend had some in her 600rr but was a goo type, but made her bike have a nasty wobble at 120 had breaks and suspension checked and everything then new tyres took stuff off the rims and new rubber now wobble has vanished

    I used them in my Gsxr 1000, worked perfectly for me although the key is ensuring you use the correct amount for your tyre size.

    Getting em in the valve was a bit of a ball ache but once your on a roll its not too bad.

    They do make a funny noise when you come to a halt as they rattle around inside the tyre

    Give em a go, they worked for me and weren't silly money if I recall

    well at least I know someone has tried them. seems you would need 1oz in the front and 2oz in the rear to balance a 120f/190r

    May give them a go

    Does that mean you can rip the mick out of the tyre fitter during the install of your next new set of boots telling him 'his baws have just dropped' as they go everywhere while the tyres coming off? :D
