Who's using ride on in there tires?

[got2mnytoys]

Been reading about it and was wondering who has tried it on motorcycle or truck tires and if anyone knows if the formula is different for trucks and motorcycles I would rather buy a couple 5 gallons than a bunch of bottles. Everything I've read says it doesn't harm the wheel like the other stuff can someone verify ? or know of something better? Thanks, Scott

I have had the ride on in my bike for a week. NOt sure how good it is yet except for a racing show ( on ice). You only need 8oz per tire. Sure looked good racing on ice with screws. Give it a try.

it don't work vary good in the bottle,soap and water clean up,maybe 100,000 mls,and no flats

I am running Ride-on in my company trucks and have used in in all my scoots over the past 6-8 years.

 

The truck tire stuff is much thicker than the MC.

 

In the work we do, we spend a lot of time in junk /salvage yards with our trucks. Used to get at least 1 or 2 flats a month on the trucks. But since adding the Ride-on last year, no more flats. Have pulled several nails, screws etc from the tires, but no flats.

 

Just my 2 cents worth here. But I will never run a MC or my work trucks without it.

Had it in my scoot for at least the last 3 tire changes thats 6 years . Never a flat. never low on air.

Where do you guys get this stuff? Will it affect the balancing of each tire?

When you have to have a new tire installed, did they have to charge you extra (for cleaning) since there is 'Ride On' stuff inside the wheel and possibly on the rim?

No extra charge since the majority is in the tire,on the rim soap and water and just wipe it off.

I've been reading testimonials at ride-on.com and the positive comments are everywhere. At this point, I think it is good insurance riding a motorcycle knowing that you have the extra edge of not having a flat tire somewhere out there. I think I am sold on the Ride-on product.

I have used Ride-On for years and its a great product. One thing to remember is to clean your rims during tire changes. I ignored this for the first 3 sets and eventually even Ride-On will gunk up in there. I guess the shops who I have used to swap the tires never bothered to clean up inside. When I took the wheels to one shop the guy broke the bead and showed me how gunked up in there. I had him remove the tires, took the rims home and had a heck of a time removing the gunk. It was beyond water and soap. I used acetone and a cleaning wheel on a drill to get it all off. Ride-On will follow the path of any air leak. It was even up into the bead area. Just remember to clean the rims with each change and it should go smoothly.

Great tip, Ruffy. I know a local guy who changes motorcycle tires. Before I let him mount the tires, I'll just take the rims home and clean them...then mount.

I bought a 3 bottle kit about a year ago, and then let it sit.... I do that a lot... Anyway I had to rebearing the front axle last month, and figured what the heck and added Ride-On to the front tire. I'm not sure if it was the new bearings or the Ride-On, but the tire seems to roll smoother, and the viabration wasn't as pronounced in the grips. The rear tire is about ready to be replaced, so it's getting it as well.

well I guess I'll try it in the motorcycles first since nobody can say anything bad about it wish it was all the same formula could save money buying the 5 gallon, thanks for helping me decide
