Ride On Tire Sealant

I have run beads and Ride-On both at times in my trike tires. I prefer the Ride-On. My tire guy really hated me for the bead action he got when he broke down my tires. I only have one leg so being broke down on the roadside is not a viable option for me. The Ride-On seems to be extremely smooth as far as self balancing goes. The beads were better than lead weights but they did cause and "out of round" feeling until I got my speed up about 20 mph or so. I like the Ride-On smoothness and the extra flat tire prevention it provides.
BTW, I am currently running the beads in my 2007 Accord v6 hybrid and I think they are much better than weights but I will switch to Ride-On when I get new tires for the car as well.
 
Thumbs up from this triker for Ride On. The guy that changes my tires may not like me very much, but I hear it's not too messy and it's water soluble.
 
Been using Ride-On for the last eight years, two bikes and now in my Tri Glide. It has never effected the tire gauge when checking pressure. It does a great job of balancing. It washes out with a garden hose. The only thing I do is check the tires for nails, screws, etc. after each ride because this stuff can seal as your riding and you might not know you even have a problem. This stuff also makes tires run cooler, which is probably why my tires seem to get great milage.
 
I've run Green Slime in all my bikes and have for years.

True your tire guy will hate you 'if you don't tell him'. I usually change my tires so before taking 'em in for mount and balance I drill a 3/4" hole in 'em and let 'em drain in a bucket over night.

I have put my kick stand down in all 48, the 4 corners and the high and low, all with slime. I don't leave home without

But, hey, that's my opinion.

I know I'm a day late and dollar short on the subject, but for those who have use "Ride On" have any of you installed the product yourself? If so, it must be installed through the valve core and then the tire re-pump back up to tire pressure? Correct?

CANCEL THE ABOVE FOUND INFO ON THE NET......SORRY
