Hold on here. I hope people aren't thinking they can put this stuff in and never have to check air pressure again??? Nope nope nope. Don't even think that. You still do regular air pressure checks. All tires lose air pressure constantly. I will say this. I have noticed I do lose less air since switching to this stuff but still have to top off now and then. I can see how having less service area to let air escape might make that possible. But never ever think you can stop checking. That's how you will tell if you have a slow leak. With or without this stuff.

100% on target !
And even though i run ride-on i still chk tire pressure on a regular basis & adj as required.
My indy says it`s no big deal because it stays close to the center of the tread (at least on my bike).
Their website shows a nice neat bead that stays in the middle when changing a tire, but the real life results are below. Even with most of the pressure let out before breaking the bead, it still blew crap all over my mechanic's tire machine. All I could do was warn him that it was full of goop. However, he doesn't mind much and I wouldn't ride without it. It also allowed me to remove a whole boatload of weights off my wheel. I used the slime product in the past and can say that it ruins your inner wheel and is much harder to clean up.

That HAD to have been freshly put in. Have had many tires changed since I started using the stuff and it was always set against the inner ridiing surface of the tire. Never have I seen it still in any type of liquid form after it has set up.

That picture is a good reference.
Wonder if wheel was carried into the shop after laying on its side (trunk/back of truck).
The viscous fluid appears to be pooling in one direction.
