Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
the bottle/instructions will tell you how much to put in will probably be 400 to 500 ml in each tyre, and instructions on taking your tyre valve out and at what place the valve needs to be to squeeze the gue in sortedridinhigh wrote:Yes i was talking about the tyre sealant
might be able to find it cheaper than this one but just to show http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Puncturesafe- ... 3f297f69d5" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It's nice to read that you've been inspired Mister Meldrew! (Don't get the wrong idea Smeghead!) Have you got a photo?

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Yes! It doesn't affect a traditional repair if you want to go that way, but why would you? It's been proven that Puncturesafe is more effective than a traditional repair. It never leaks again from the same place and there is no speed restriction on Puncturesafe repaired tyres. Well, that is, repaired tyres have been successfully tested to 175mph without problems. Traditionally vulcanized repaired tyres have an 85mph speed restriction on them for life so as to prevent too much heat build up causing the mushroom plug from coming undone and causing a blowout. I've ridden my GSX1400 with two rear punctures plugged by Puncturesafe (or Ultraseal as it was then), and my DL1000GT with again two rear punctures for thousands of miles without any problems. My Burgman also has one rear puncture and had to have another tyre replaced due to a very large object going through the tyre which puncturesafe stopped from blowing out but could not seal it safely. It did it's job! Puncturesafe is completely safe to handle. It's non toxic and washes out of the carcass easily. My dealer changed my tyre and had no problem washing the gunk off the rim ready for the new tyre.ridinhigh wrote:If you use puncturesafe? can tyre be repaired properly after ,because years ago any thing like used in a tyre
made it that you could not stick a patch on ,so rendering tyre scrap
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'!

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Polished my helmet!
(no, not the "working the keyboard with my other hand" kind of helmet polishing )
Boots and Givi screen next
I've seen lots of shiny things I want to buy but I've just forked out for a new leather jacket so I'm trying to distract myself from spending any more money by washing the bugs and gunk off what I've already got
