Just had to blatt oop north for a family visit, and it was just such a relief to have the puncture safe in the tyres knowing that I would be unlikely (unless I did something very silly) to be stuck at the side of the road awaiting recovery for a punctured tyre.
No change to handling 
weight? well I was travelling to visit so had a weekend's worth of kit and gifts for the kids in the tail so would hardly have made a difference. Even had I not been 'laden' I reckon one less pie or changing from winter to summer gear would cover any weight difference.

I did weigh some of the jollop recently. 30.8g per unit.
So that's 277g for the front tyre of most modern sportsbikes and 400g for the rear. Having ridden thousands of miles with the stuff in the Falco, some with Brembo wheels, some with OZ, I still say you won't notice at all that it's in there what ever wheels you have.
