I have just got a set of these today while working in Hawaii to fit to my WR250F.

I have seen mostly good reviews online about them and although they are pretty expensive ($100 USD per end) I rode with a guy over here last month who raved about them. In addition my work overseas "daily living allowance" paid for them, as long as I dont eat for a few days!
The reason I wanted these is I have been doing some gnarly rides lately where a flat tyre would really suck. I did the wires/gutbuster in reverse last Sunday and it would have been nice to have run 6 PSI or so without worrying about pinch flats on those rocks! The most interesting point after the puncture prevention is the weight saving claim by the maker of up to 3 pounds per tyre...this is with heavy duty tubes which I do currently run. It will be very interesting to see if this a) is true and b) makes a noticable difference to the handling and acceleration as claimed by Nuetech. I am a little sceptical but I will try to weigh the before and after setup when I install on Sunday or Monday after I get back home. The real trial will be after a ride but I don't think that will happen until the weekend following this one. I will update when I can.
