Hi, I have just received my bottle of puncture-safe, I've just checked the instructions for my Burgman 650 Tyre sizes and my sizes don't seem to be there. my front is 120/70/15 and rear 160/60/14 how much do i put into each Tyre. I have a new tyre on the front and rear so this is the right time to be dealing with this.
Any help you can give will be gratefully received.

around 9.5 on the front and 9 on the rear...
Disclaimer: I am only looking at the nearest ones and averaging. I had to guess on my Nexus 500 and never had an issue.

Someone on here recently suggested that it was good idea to put more than the specified amount in, so I guess it would be best to put more rather than less in

More rather than less - definitely; that's what the man at Puncturesafe said when I phoned to find out how much to put in the Silverwing tyres (which is the same as the Burger 650 - quoted here).

+1 on all the above. Round up to the nearest tyre size. I had to do that too. CAUTION: don't be tempted to go mad and really really overdose by huge amounts. It can have an adverse effect on balance and effectiveness.

Really good thread. I am going to look into this as its a constant concern. My only experience of anything like this is with the puncture repair aerosols from Halfords etc.
They have got me home twice. If I use this stuff its one less thing to carry about.

I ordered Puncturesafe direct from the company.
Good service:

It appears to be available from Amazon UK, too.
