The beads work. After time they turn to dust though. On big lifted vehicles, like 44's/ 54"'s (redneck trucks :) ) , you can use golf balls. There is a math formula for this of course to figure out how many to use.

As Beaker mentioned good tire brands for bikes have a little circle that indicates the heaviest section of tire which is then lined up with the valve stem. I do not have any peel and stick weights nor a rachet / socket to pull the tires beaker. However most tires for motos are not balanced perfectly from the factory. Most of my crew chew through a tire set every month. The centers are good but the sides are scrubbed.
There is a guy with a shop near the northern riverside area ,IIRC, that does a lot of work on Harleys and big bikes he has a high speed balancer but I can't remember the name of his shop. Maybe ask here ----> https://www.facebook.com/HarleiDavitionCambodia/
