I had it in a car years ago. Felt like I'd cheap unbalanced tyres for the first few miles then was OK. Don't know if it worked or not as I never got anything in the tyres.

Tyre fitters don't like it as it makes a mess of the wheel and there's a chance you could drive with something stuck in the tyre which could lead to a bigger issue.

Agree with reasons above against 'Tyre fillers' in general.

Have successfully used the Pocket Tire Plugger kit from stopngo.com for a few years now, and find it easy to use, handy and safe.

As always, only recommended for a 'get you home' fix, but I used one at a track day previously and held up fine :-)

Its like Slime Or Ultraseal ... Used mostly in rear tyre on Bandit 600.

Had it in front tyre but gave handling issues at speed ... Plugging kit underseat is the best item to have.

Thread cleaned.

I met the man and woman who own this company at a trade show a while back. Seems like a pretty good system, could get you out of a difficult time if you got a puncture in the middle of nowhere with no tools

can offset the substantial weight gains by removing your valve caps
