RIDE ON... How many ounces per Valkyrie tire?

[Paxton]

How many ounces of Ride On goes into each tire?.  Would one 8-oz bottle be enough for one bike?

I used three 8oz. bottles to do both tires.

I love Ride-on.

I use 14 ozs of the "auto formula" in my 205/ car tire.  I wish I knew what the difference is between auto and motorcycle other than the auto formula is a good bit cheaper and comes in 16 oz bottles.  At one time, I think MarkT was going to run a comparison between the two formulas to see if it was a marketing thing.  I never heard the results.

Both motorcycle and car tires run similar pressures, speeds and tempertures.  I can't figure out why the manufacturer says not to use the auto formula in motorcycle tires.

BTW, to answer your question, I used to use 11 ozs in my rear motorcycle tire.  The tire stayed perfectly balanced it's entire useful life without the need for external balancing weights.

So far I like the Ride on. I bought three eight ounce bottles and used 13 oz in the rear and 11 in the front. I had good results in terms of balance. No vibrations noted up to 100 mph without wheel weights. I have not tested puncture sealing ability yet, but I'm confident it will work.

I emailed the company that makes it.  They told me the m/c formula is thinner so it reacts quicker to changes in direction and flows up the sidewall.  I asked about running the car formula in my c/t and they still recommend the m/c formula for the same reason.
