Default 450R owners - stock rear tire balancer?

Is it normal to hear debris or stuff rolling around in your rear (stock) tires?? Do they put stuff in them from the factory to assist with balancing?? I have not took the tires off the rim to check it out, yet. Sounds like small rocks/marbles rolling around in there.

I have the same thing w/ my 400ex. I thought it was a rock at first, but no worries.

It is the lubricant that is applied to the beads for mounting. It rolls around in the tire and forms hard *****.
