ShotgunYoung Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I got about 3 hours in. Nice day to ride. Would have got more time in the wind but, I got a flat rear tire I was lucky to be close to home. Turned out I foud a "key", like a house key stuck all the way in my tire. Still had fun though.

NinjaNick Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Thats an Old School biker I rode the bike I have now for a whole summer with the tag from a friends bike.What? I don't know you, but I will do this... Because all that money on a bike/Harley and you couldn't afford to legalize your bike with a license plate to avoid being arrested? You got lucky.

cmoosego Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I've found that simonize tire slime works great in bike tires, especially the rear tire... I caught a long screw in september, haven't lost air since, and I've ridden it at least 200 miles since then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since you run a tube in it you could have your old one patched on the inside. And keep it as a spare in case you pick up some more metal in your new ones. I think phop told me this can only be done safely on tube tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And keep it as a spare in case you pick up some more metal in your new ones. I think phop told me this can only be done safely on tube tires.I actually found a way to keep metal from touching my rear tires... I figured out a way to mount a high power earth magnet in front of the tire on my swing arm to catch debris before it ends up in my tire, and it blends in with the framework so you can't see it... now, to buy the magnet..... inexpensive too...

jgetz524 Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Chiming in a little late here, but I rode to work last week. Also got a shower on the way home. It's a good thing I don't wash my bike or I'd have been pretty unhappy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
