SWing'R Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Cant believe so many of you are saying repair it. I dont care if you've only got 10 miles on it, replace with NEW!!!Been there done that. One season on mine and both had to be replaced couple weeks ago cause of a nail in one and a rock jammed in the other I planned on replacing them later this season anyway, just sucks to get caught off guard with an unexpected expense like new tires.

magley64 Posted May 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 why didn't anyone tell me motorcycle tires were SOO easy to rim and de-rim... car tires are a PITA, with a bumper jack and a truck, 2 giant pry bars, and a TON of elbow grease, but my bike tire just took 2 flat scrwdrivers, and a little tire bead breaker tool.

SAMBUSA Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 I figured if I worded it properly you would Not all of us are loaded like you mack daddy.It's not about being loaded. It's about being smart. With all due respect, if you you repair a flat with a plug, patch or both instead of replacing it - you're just plain stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Yea but you're still the loadedest shimp I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAMBUSA Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 And I also worked in a tire shop for 5 years before I started on the RR. I've seen what happens to car tires, imagine the difference with a bike tire because of higher heat and speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolsdime92 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Why does the reflection from the flash on the tire look like you covered it with glittered lip gloss?because his milkshake brings all the boys to the yard...and the boy in the yard left lipgloss on the tire!

With all due respect, if you you repair a flat with a plug, patch or both instead of replacing it - you're just plain stupidmy options: patch and ride, buy a front in 2 weeks, orrr.... park the bike for a month and 1/2 and wait til I can afford 2 tires...may not be the smartest thing I've ever done IYO, but in this case I feel the benefits outweigh the risk.patched up and ready to rock.
