ive use tire slime its saved my ass a couple of times

the first time i hadnt even got round to put it in my safety mad mum sent me on a driver improvment course
in layland (2hr ride)
got a back flat half way there luckily near a petrol station just stuck in the slime filled the tyre and it was fine

second time some clever nob put razor wire in the road it was dark and dident see it damn stuff wrapped round
the front tire wasted the front of my fairing and dug a rut right round the tyre
so i untangled it and pulled a couple of spikes out but the tyre stayed up Sad

what drives people to do such stupid things???


PS make sure you get the right stuff for your tyre a friend put tubeless in the tubes of his CB250 superdream
and found a nail...........................damn those things are heavy with a front flat Very Happy

Better than pushing, abandoning or having to trust one of those repair doodas.
If you get a big enough hole later it oooziz out giving indication that the tyre's phuqued and need replaced.
Take your tyres to the wires/rayon cords
