+1 to ride on.

If you do get a puncture and you ride in temps under 30F it might sling out.
Other than that; I've never had a mess to clean up.
In the pic below, you can see that it stays where centripetal force puts it.
 
Is this not seated right? While putting the wheel she didn't feel seated right and this doesn't look right to me:

I would run out and look at my bike but it is pouring rain and mixed with a bit of hail. :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( Went out anyhow. Yes I have a space in the same area. when your putting the wheel on you can feel it set.

I don't have a T dealer anywhere near me here in Olympia. I don't consider Seattle near me.

I took my rear wheel and new Exedra Max to get fitted to it and balanced, they quoted $38, not terrible considering what a nightmare I know the Bridgestones to be to mount.

I go pick it up, charged $24.... one problem... ITS NOT FING BALANCED.

Doesn't fit on their balance machine.

Service department is cool, prices are good, open to working on R3s, but don't take your tires there, they can't balance an R3R rear wheel.

Dealer: Yamaha MotorSports Of Olympia is located in Olympia, WA. Shop our large online inventory.

FYI -
Rob,
There is a shop very near me that I have used for years to mount and balance my tires.
 
I used to use balance beads, but @R3Tex turned me on to this product:

Motorcycle Tire Sealant | Scooters Tire Sealant | Motorcycle Formula (MOT) - Ride-On

It is not only a sealant, but an excellent tire balancing product

I LIKE IT A LOT BETTER THAN THE BALANCE BEADS


This stuff looks pricy until you have to pay a wrecker to drag you of the road and have to buy a new tire because you had to run your flat to a safe place to stop.

Do you know if the formula for cars is the same as for motorcycles. The MC product is not available. :thumbsdown:

Amazon. Remember to use the heavy duty chart for balancing. Requires more product. Also warm up the ride on in hot water so you can get more of it out of the bottle.
