Good idea if you are touring the world on a GS but on a superbike I prefer to know I have had a puncture at some point which will warn me of the integrity of my tyre.

I've used Slime on my scooter years ago. It's pretty amazing, but won't make the tyre completely air proof. Actually the green goo keeps coming out of the puncture hole and makes a bloody mess. It's a bitch to clean up. I'm pretty sure that the guy who installs your tires won't be happy either... :lol:

Rhinotyre seems to be a little different though... Maybe on a adventure bike with mainly low speeds it could be all right. On a sportbike :eek2 I'd like to know if my tyre was damaged in anyway before getting on the autobahn.

Crims will love it as Police stinger device wouldn't work - and after seeing them power drive screws into the tire is that you could easily add winter tire studs.

As its not a gloopy fluid and seems set like pork pie gel it could have potential if not too heavy.

Looking at specs it adds approx 0.8Kg per tire.
