RSTAR08 Posted April 10, 2012 Share #1 Posted April 10, 2012 So, I just put new Pirelli 66's on the bike and three hrs into my trip I get a flat tire out back!!!?@#@%$#@???"""> Had to hang around until Monday for new tire- only had a Dunlop 402/404(? whatever) in stock. I suppose I should be glad no crash happened- 60mph & picked up metal scrap in construction zone. Later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSTDdog Posted April 10, 2012 Share #2 Posted April 10, 2012 Same thing happened to Dave (ZipCode), see watering hole thread. Metal or something after going through construction zone. Dave went down, a little banged up, sore but OK. If you kept the shiny side up you did good. RSTDdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm482 Posted April 10, 2012 Share #3 Posted April 10, 2012 Sure glad you and the bike are OK. All things conscidered a tire is cheap. I have had a rear go down fast and it was no fun. Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSTAR08 Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted April 10, 2012 All told I can't complain too much- escaped unharmed, bike as well. Just wallet damage- but I'm used to that. LOL Luckily the air escaped slowly so when the high-speed wobble kicked in I was fortunate not to be in a curve or changing lanes (with all the crazy "four wheels" flyin' around I kept to the right and did not have to cross lanes to move off road).
