Lobo Hurfiano

Recommended Posts

Home based in N. tx. Riding south/eastern states. Picked up something in the rear tire on I-95. Nearest dealer appears to be in Washington. One local shop doesn't work on anything earler than 99. The other recoginised the name yahamaha but not Venture Royal, told them-like a Gold Wing-they got it. They don't repair-only replace.(lo-mile)Dunlap Eliete II 491--For the Paultarey sume of $600 and a wk.of down time.

Got time-got $

Don't look forward to spending eather on this. suggestions pelase...

I know we have a few members outside the Richmond area. Just not sure whose home at this time of day. That one place telling you 600 for a tire and a week down. What do they do make the tire? Sorry. Good luck and I hope you can get the tire fixed. If you were down here I'd just call my dealer, but we're a wee bit south of where you are. Little too far to ride till you get the tire fixed.

Are there any major Bike Dealers where you are located ?

 

If so, most any bike dealer might carry this plugging Kit. This Plugging Kit, will repair most any Nail Puncture, If you can find one. ( These Plugging Kits WORK !! )

 

Throw in a can of Tire Sealer avialable at most any auto parts store.

 

Not a permanent fix, but should get you down the road to a dealer somplace that can Replace the Tire.

 

Post your exact location, There might be a member within close proximity that can come to your assistance.
