I have the BMW one that you poke in the hole and re inflate with small supplied canisters .Heard it was very good....................haven't used it yet and don't actually know how, hope to learn if it happens:blast
 
Stop n Go...

Stop n Go is the way forward... 12v Slime pump to re-inflate after...

Done a few repairs now, some on my own bike others on mates and once on a stranded biker. Ran one of the plugs in a rear for over 5k miles, no problem.

Buy a kit and have a practice on an old tyre. Note that 12v pumps tend to trip the canbus in the socket so wire one up straight to the battery via a fuse.

Stop'n'Go seems to be well-recommended. Will give it a go.

If you are relying on the BMW-type........................ Renew the glue every 2 yrs at the least. I tend to renew annually - just to be on the safe side, as the glue doesn't last forever.

Stop and go as well. Had one in my car tyre for 12000 miles now and no problems at all with it. I use the CO2 canisters for inflation.
