It works, but when you have to let the air out of the tube for any reason (like replacement) you get green stuff everywhere. If you're not careful, when you top up the tire, you'll get green stuff in the valve stem, which can cause a leak.

Thanks Sore. The above sounds like a better product than "Slime".
After going to "Slime's" web site, http://www.slime.com/category_3_Tire-Sealant.html I read their warning about high speed use. Slime's idea of high speed is speeds above 65 mph. At those "high" speeds, Slime is only recommended for repairs and may actually cause vibration in the front tire.
Two tires only. I will not add anything to my tubes unless it is to get home. Then the crap and tube are coming off to be replaced. Life is too short to make this forum as a tire blew out, biker killed--maimed---or missing.
I know Slime says you can use it for cars, motorcycles, ATV's etc. I haven't ever used it on anything other than bicycle tires, with great results. I would probably carry it for 'emergency / get home' use only on a m/cycle.

It may get you home, but it will make the tube (and tire if tubeless) unpatchable. Plus it will throw it out of balance as with anything like that you put in a tire. I suggest carrying a patch kit and co2 canister to air it up.
