In my days of mousse en I used to put a valve in anyway, this help pop a soft moussed tyre on the rim. Mot man will never notice unless your running a very soft one then he could say your tyre pressures are wrong.

Re: Mousses
I'm taking them out , done the back one just got the front to do , so I have a couple of free mousses if anyone wants to collect them (thumbs)
Re: Mousses
not sure how much anyone has had experience of this, but I have been using goop in all my vehicle tyres for the past 10 years.
it stared when I worked in forestry and got a puncture in my van tyre every few months. so I gooped the tyres. never had a puncture after that.
When I got my Peg it seemed the natural thing to do, so I gooped up the tubes. and same thing, never had a puncture, on or off road.
I'm surprised people aren't more into it, but perhaps there is a reason for this I don't know. the relatively low speed of my Peg might mean that higher speeds are inadvisable for such stuff, however 100mph seems quick enough to me!

Re: Mousses
could you elaborate on this i.e. type of mousses,tyres.how often do you re-lube them? what kind of mileage you get from them? what speed do you do on the road? what bike? thanksGrahamkevinbutler wrote:So is driving with out a licence but people do,Helicoptermanr22 wrote:Not legal
