299 doesn't seem like too bad a price for a 4 pack of Kenda's. Of course I'm getting too old for ATV's, the last time we owned an ATV it was one of the old Red Yamaha 3 wheelers, back in my childhood. Must have been an 81 or 82 model year. Talk about a death trap by the way, the old 3 wheelers, what a way to break your neck.

I use Slime on my mower tires. My mower is a vintage 1986 John Deere 265. The rims had lots of pitting, so I did add the Slime to the rims and tire when I mounted them. Tires have not lost air. I have the Harbor Freight mini tire changer. It does make it easier for sure.

Used to agree on the tire slime with you but since we moved to "Multi Seal FlatOut w/kevlar" we've never gone back. I've seen that stuff "heal" tires on tractors so dry rotted you could see though them. I had a 1 inch branch go through my quad tire and my tires were pre-loaded with it and when we pulled the branch I didn't even hear a pssst noise. Never rusted any lf the rims its been in, doesnt break down, washes off with water and for me most importantly being in the rust belt it doesnt freeze hard in the coldest of winter, just gets goopy. Plus it tested really well on project farms video. Never let us down in the almost decade we've had it in service. Slime is still good stuff, fix a flat shoule be banned, ms butterworth works better than fix a flat.

I'm in my 70s, still ride a XC mountain bike. We have cacti out along the trial so it's fairly easy to get a flat. For a few years now I've been using Specialized Airlock tubes. They come with the sealant already in the tube so no mess to deal with. So far they've done the job they're supposed to do.

It's a good call putting that slime in... back in the days having the shop, we used to get this pink stuff that actually had fiberglass shreds in it ( similar to the stuff that's put in concrete), come in 5 gallon pails...had a cheap tire mounted and actually had the customer drill a 3/16 hole in it to show what it was capable of filling a puncture....was a great selling point...nice tires, looks like I'll be putting on a set...

Going tubeless is great, I will never go back… but my first time was a little nerve racking. I was more focused on the tires and the feeling, super worried my rim tape would not hold. It held fine and after a couple of rides I never worried again. It’s amazing how many punctures my tires have…I only knew about the few that I had to pull stuff out of, other than that I don’t think I even lost 1psi….going tubeless you can run really low psi. I used Stan’s also. Best choice ever. Only flat I ever had since going tubeless was from a massive spear that was left over from someone grinding away a stump. I would suggest anyone that does, swap out the sealant every 3 months. If you let it sit in there much longer it will be a nightmare to clean. Ask me how I know LOL my tires were in really good shape, so cleaning them was mandatory. I used a little steamer and about 5 little brushes. Worked great. Luv me sum SMA video ❤

On my MTBs, slime worked pretty good for small punctures and with initial sidewall leakage. It also had decent longevity and was cheaper than the Stans system (which I found needed sealant replacement more frequently). Before these solutions were available, I'd cut a tube down the middle, stretch it over the rim, mount the tire, cut off the excess tube and finally use liquid latex from a crafts store. This worked OK but you couldn't run the lower PSIs you can with the new tubeless systems. If you like to MTB you should come and check out the North Shore. Lots of great riding around here.

I have a 2001 Yamaha wolverine, its got the big 350cc. Bought it new and it is a very similar machine to your big bear, almost identical. I ran the Kenda bear claws for many years over rocks, sand, mud, tree branches, snow plowing, yard work and I do believe in the slime. However, I did not need to run the slime in those tires until they were very worn (probably should have bought a new set sooner) but the slime saved me a few more years until I replaced them. Thanks for all the great videos!

Used the slime with great results, never put it in a tire that didn't leak though. The old quads rule had a 1999 Suzuki king quad 4WD chain drive it was a working beast. Never had an issue until I tried to jump start it with my truck, while the truck was running, well you probably know how that ended..🥴 some new parts and she was back to work. Snow plowed for 15 years with that thing.

A friend of mine and I ran Honda ATV's on a hunting lease in Gonzales, TX., in the early '00's. We used SLIME in all of the tires because the place was covered with thorny mesquite bushes and you couldn't avoid them. It worked great. We did have a compressor at the that we occasionally needed to pump up tires, but otherwise no issues.

You need to put something on that piston to extend it and it'll take care of your problem and still work right. I know a couple of guys that had the same problem they took The pistons from their original calipers Cut them down on a chop saw and 2 part epoxy'ed What they needed to the aftermarket piston and it works. They hold up even in heat of braking which Most ATV's don't build any heat in the brakes 'cause they're not used often anyway.

I worked at a landscaping company years ago. So many flat tires. I started putting sealant in every tire except the trucks. Tractors, mowers, skid steers.... The time I spent fixing tires was cut in half after that. I still do it for all of my own tires. Not a fan of the slime though. Lots of places to buy a 5 gallon bucket and nice pump. The pump I have is graduated by ounces too. Makes getting the right amount in super easy.

If you go drive in sand.. You can flip your tires to the other side and that V-shape tread will act kinda like a scooping paddle tire. It does surprisingly well. I've had a lot of Kenda's in my time. I've had actual Kenda paddle tires too: and their paddle was quite stiff and worked great on dirt. They seem to really make their treads useful everywhere.

If I order oem parts i usually buy from moto sport the prices are usually cheaper then the dealer. Good luck 🍀

The tire slime is a good idea if you go out and ride it a while immediately after putting it in. If you let it set up by not riding it immediately, it will all set on one side. If you run it immediately, it will distribute itself evenly around the inside of the tire. Check with DB Electrical for a fan. They supply All Balls and a few other large brands with their electric atv fans at half the cost you'd pay those brands. $65 for the fan on my 500 Rubicon, compared to about $125 for the same fan from All Balls.

Slime is awesome, I used have a yamaha xt 500 motorbike that I used to ride on a landfill site here in the UK and most weekends I would get a flat tyre, then I put slime in the tubes and I don't remember having a puncture after that. I now have it in my mobility scooter and not had a puncture in that in the last two years since putting it in. It really does work. I prefer older vehitickles which are more mechanical than electronic because I am better with hand tools than tablets/scan tools and most mechanical stuff I can either fix or bodge something together that works.

my dads ATV was made in 89 had OEM tires on it until like forever LOL. Changed them ( at the time ) my uncles had the ATV before my dad. They use to do POKER Runs back in the days with ATV. Well they used Fix it Flat so much we had to use Saw Saw LOL to cut them off from the rim.

Great video. I seriously wonder if it makes sense for the average weekend wrench turner to buy a tire machine and mount and balance our own tires. I would also need to buy an air compressor. I am sick of dealing with the tire shops.

Use tire slime in my riding mower tires, and my mountain bike tires, and I love it.

Honda had ATV tire sealant that I always had good luck with back in the day. Not sure if they still make it.

I have used Slime for years in all sorts of things. It is very useful in trailers. I have also used it in motorcycles. If you get just the right amount in, it balances the wheel but there can be a bit of a weird wobble at certain low speeds. Worth it to not have to worry about flats on a long road trip.

I think your spot on with Slime, works great on slow speed trail tires. Still use tubes and Slime in MTB tires. Ran tubeless for a while, but not a fan. Slime definitely works here in AZ, with countless thorns and cactus on the trails.

I got a set of the aftermarket brake calipers for 2005 Bruin 350 from eBay. I think they were about 30 bucks and so far i haven't had any problems with them. They bled easily and they've been on there going on 2 years. I got it from a friend he originally wanted 500 for it and ended up only paying 250. Only thing left that i need for it is a new oil cooler

Last time I replaced 4 wheeler tires I got Carlisle’s and they were even made in USA which I was happy about. To do the valve adjustment you will be taking all the front end plastic stuff off for sure had one just like it for 15 plus years. A lot of aftermarket brake parts people have brought me don’t fit so I have been just ordering OR stuff as it is not usually that much more and it fits
