valve stem
#6
Word of advice - started running dyna beads in another, lesser quality bike in hopes of a smoother ride. Aware of some problems but thought it was worth the risk.
Checked air pressure - valve at 90 degrees - and dyna beads caused it to stick open! WTF!
Ended up pulling the valve stem - schrader valve - and replacing. Found beads stuck in valve.
Will use ride on or another additive but never dyna beads again.
