Ride on pics
When I replaced the rear tire on my UL last time I put the recommended amount on the motorcycle Ride-on product that they recommended. The tire is a Dunlop 180/55-18 on a Agiator wheel. When I took the tire off the rim, I did not see what the ride-on website shows. Just curious if anybody else has experience in what I have. I've never ran any weights front or rear and never had a flat....so the product seems to work. The wheel washed right up at the water hose.

I have replaced 2 sets of tires that I used Ride-on in, the last one I just took off last weekend. Looked pretty much just like yours, I didn't have quite as much on the wheel.
I like using it because it self balances the wheel as the tire wears. On the sealing part, not sure how it works, haven't had any punctures as far as I can tell and I inspect the tires every 1 or 2 weeks when the bike is up on the lift.

I lost track of how many tires I have used Ride On in. Mine have never looked anything like that and always adheres to the contact patch area of the tire. Have never had it on the wheel either. So 2 of you have seen this? Seems to me instructions are not being followed?
Let's put it this way, I wiped the rim down with 2 pieces of blue shop towels and got all of the ride on off it. His looks to have quite a bit more on it. But I think it depends on how long the tire was sitting and how warm it was. I know I took the front off and I let the tire sit in the garage standing up on a angle against a box and some of the ride on started to run out of the tire after a few days.

My bike has been sitting on my Handy lift table for 2 months now as I had a total knee replacement back in January. I used the amount of product they recommended. It is not a generic product. It is the Ride-On motorcycle product. I installed the new tire myself and put the sealant in myself also. 80 gallon compressor with a dryer. I just checked my Amazon order from then. I ordered it middle of March in 2016, Basically 2 years ago.

Looks like moisture? Condensation? I have Ride-on in my tires and I’m very curious to how it will look when I break the wheels down. Living up north in the shitty climate my bike is parked for several months in winter. I notice a lot of condensation in my garage with the temperature swings.

Living in the Dallas area it does get hot. I built this house 7 years ago. The garage is insulated. Insulated 2" garage doors. Attic insulated also. I have a window unit that I can air condition if I want to, although it stays about 80 even when it's above 100 outside. I don't think condensation in the garage is bad. When I drain the air compressor, not much water.
