so far I have NOT added any kind of puncture sealer in my Michelins,,,did have it in my Bridgestones and Dunlop. The Dunlop had to be replaced early due to catching a nail, I think it was a roofing nail, as it was aluminum, but had lost the plastic skirt....anyway, I made it home not knowing I had a nail, next morning rear tire is flat, so I was blessed and lucky that I made it home, and had the pleasure of dealing with a flat tire at home with tools and all......I tried putting a snake in that Dunlop with glue, did not hold, .....neither would fix-a-flat give me a remedy for getting to the shop, so I rode the flat up in a trailer, ...and trailered the ST to the HondaStealer......so all in all the RideOn in my Dunlop likely got me home and did it's job???? I have used Slime and RideOn and I like RideOn better, ..........any thoughts on puncture-sealer ???

Bridgstone makes good tires, I have gone thgought a couple of set of them also. The lightest feel I have used were Conti Road Attacks, but I only got a little over 6K out of the rear. I loved the feel just not twice the expense.

actually I got myself into a mess with this set of PR2's - I ordered them from Two Brothers out of Atlanta...
Bummer it was such pain getting them mounted. I haven't changed a tire myself - good thing I live and hour away from Two Brothers! (their website says Keel Brothers) I learn so much from these threads! PR2s (or 3s?) are my next tires. Thanks! :sm1:

Love the PR2's but wish for better mileage on the rear.
2nd rear (5500 on first)
1st front (bt023 prev.)

Ran 42 / 42 alot of 2-up / fairly aggressive. Trying a little more pressure on this new rear to see if that helps improve wear.
Looking forward to trying the BT023-GT when its avail..
