What are the chances..
« on: August 27, 2006, 07:21:07 PM »

something like this could happen?

I had a flat tire fixed last month during a cross country trip.

Check out your dealer see if has nail guns laying around?  Maybe the next advances in MC tire design will be run flats! If nothing else you could ride for 50 to 100  miles to next dealer to get it fixed.

Well, they put air in the tires and they held pressure.. ::)

I'm starting to wonder if some mofo decided to let the air out of the tires to see what it would be like "lowered". [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Can't begin to count the number of tubes I've seen which were pinched when mounting the tire and how many loose or otherwise screwed up valve stems I've come across. Hope it's just the stem.
