[QUOTE="art miller, post: 1451390, member: 19411"] Interesting chain of comments here. I know this will drawl negative comments but here it is. I have been running Michelin PR tires starting with PR 2 and currently Road 5. Of all the series I have never used wheel weights. I started back in 1999 on a Virago 1100 using ceramic beads in the front tire and Ride-On in the rear tire. In 2007 when I bought my first FJR I did the same after the OEM tires were worn out. I have had no wheel weights on the three FJR's I have subsequently owned. Many claim this is snake oil and that is fine. I have had the FJR's over 100mph multiple times and have had no noticeable vibration or handle bar shake. Maybe I am just the lucky guy but If i had the issue that started this thread I would try something different. No worries about weights falling off or ugly **** on the wheels!! [/QUOTE]
