I have one of these in the storage on the bike.

Never had to use it, don't know what it would come out like after being used and whether the shop guy would get pissed off if I had used it and took it to him for a tyre replacement.

I use these mini mushrooms and have one in the rear tyre of the Fazer 1000.  :thumbup

It survived a very very hi speed trip back from the UGP with Mark. :D First time the fuel light came on after only 120 miles :eek .

I have two packs of them one under the seat of the 600 and one under the seat of the 1000 all the time. Had to use 2 in total.
Put a bit of spit on them before using as it helps them to go in easier :)
