Looks like good stuff.  Canadian company.  They make several variations, but comparing their Sahara and Sahara Moto I am seeing no difference except for asking price.  Both are high speed capable and show motorcycle applications on the label, so I'm going with the less expensive Sahara in the larger bottles.  They are asking about $25 for a big whopping 34 oz. bottle.  Compare to Ride-On, at over $20 for an undersized 8 oz. bottle.

I was about to have some tires installed without Ride-On because it's so expen$ive when I found this.  Now I just have to wait for it to arrive before I can make an appointment to have the tires changed.  I hate waiting!

Ride-On has been using a marketing scheme on us for years.  Their formula for ATV's is sold at a fraction of the price per ounce, of the motorcycle formula.  I compared them side-by-side.  The ATV formula sells (sold) on ebay for a bit over $20 for a quart - 32oz.  It also does not appear to expire on the shelf - which Ride-On claims it does.  The ATV formula must be sold to that market for much less, because the quantities needed are so much more with those fat tires.  I've bought the quart size Ride-On in gallon quantity, and right now have 2 quarts on hand, unopened.  Been using it for years. It balances just fine, and I've had no flats since I began using it many years ago.  Here's one listed for $15.  Many are now about $30.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/304476274803?epid=1526968928&hash=item46e4334073:g:r1gAAOSwiANidKMA&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0ONo8wIAvhg%2BBYfUiAYGzFnzVAtHxMqOYPpd9FKvYP5wbIswcXArct6mckUFgrCBnwRDJnTwgG9CRIBE0JHfReIjk64seI5sJD0W1%2FBPtA%2F8fPOveQOY00WOCwhIUHS5XN7mOjydGympihu1CEULJ1ICNG9%2F4szz3HGWH6mfntccRERn%2FD0gvSzysSdqW0ZMYtusXXeCj2LO6ekIg8mEfFClA%2BYFlKKrYHt%2BT3LLhzPNcVI2FqI7OoIFlHqwCV9Rq8k1edN9fJt6x5qu0cMgrhI%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR8Lht96AYg

I have no doubt the different formulas and even different brands (excluding crappy Slime) are very similar, so going for the best deal is probably the way to go.

I did notice Stallion markets their Sahara (fleet) and Sahara Moto (m/c) formulas as "High Speed", a term they leave off the label of their Powersport (ATV) formula's label.  That doesn't really make sense, because modern ATVs and side-by-sides flat out haul ass.

I told him to throw 20 oz. in the car tire, and the rest in the Cobra.  It feels smooth so far, no wheel weights installed.
