I have Ride-on in my Kawasaki front tire. I put that in to fix a slow leak, but it didn't fix it. I never had a balance issue before the ride-on, so I can't tell how it works for that.

A question, though...
If I use beads or ride-on in my R3T tires, can the weights be removed? Or should they be kept on there. My rims have a bunch of those ugly weights I'd love to get rid of, but not at the expense of an unruly tire!
 
Steve, tried this product because Morris said he uses it in every vehicle he owns, including tractors. He buys it in large drum quantity. He suggests following the dosage chart to the heavy use side. So I put in the max amount. I started using it after I had 3 flats on a new Exedra max in a 3 month span & had to trash that tire :thumbsdown:

Indeed! I bought a new Max in San Antonio after our Leakey adventure.
Rode it about 1500 miles to Moab, UT and then it went flat while on the trailer heading home.
I have gotten a new Max and will be heading up to the shop to see WTF!!! :D

How about the residual mess when changing tires???

I tried dyna beads and it sucked!

Bike shook around 100MPH

Called dyna beads about it and they asked me how much beads was put in the front tire?

I told them and they said it was the correct amount. Then they told me there was something wrong with my bike. The **** bike was only a shade over a year old!

Took the tire off, removed the beads, balanced it using weights...tire did not shake the front of the bike anymore!

I just about called them back and let them have it but I didn't of course since I try not to get hot about things.

Something wrong with my bike.... PSHHHH

Chris, I've been getting the Ride On from Ebay - Try that
Almost nowhere in Europe has it on ebay. tbh the EU site is a wee bit sparse on info. They list things in a mix of floz and ccs.
I think a lot of US stuff will hit a setback in Europe soon. Many use the UK as their inroad into Europe - Brexit is going to make some stuff awkward.
The Dutch have tremendous tax laws regarding warehousing and shipping but imo the smaller companies are usually disadvantaged in making the most of it.

It seems to me it will cost about 100€ to do an R3 - seem right? - four bottles!. Comes out at 30floz for both tyres on their calculator.

Not so - I too had issues with the cobra front. Lasted less than a Metzler - cupped asymmetrically. 6300kms. Now my name is NOT @Paul Bryant but....................
