I run ride-on in my Night Train and my Goldwing plus i carry a plug kit just in case. Even on my touring bike you can tell a difference in the smoothness at all speeds and its nice to know it's in the tire when needed!

Run it in all my tires and keep a spare in the saddlebag just in case for anyone else

Not to hijack this thread, but should I take off my wheel weights before I add the Ride On stuff? My rear wheel has like 4 weights in one location.

You can leave them on but why? I would take them off. You MUST take the bike out for around a seven mile ride immediately after adding ride-on to disperse and balance the tire. I believe their website has this info.

Install Ride On now, and every time you change a tire. It balances, seals punctures, and does not corrode your wheels.

I'm getting 17,000 miles on my rear tires, and my fronts are no where close to be worn out at 25,000.

Another vote for Ride-on. I picked up about a 1/4" lag screw in my rear tire which I noticed while filling up at a gas station. Limped it home another 50 miles or so. When I pulled the screw out it just spit a little and sealed up. Only lost a couple pounds of air pressure. I replaced the tire as that kind of thing makes me nervous but this stuff is a really good product. Could really save your bacon in the middle of nowhere

I picked up a triangular piece of shale in Wyoming in my front tire. I pulled it out with a needle nosed pliers, and it went "psst" and sealed right up. End of story.
