New tire...new problem!

[ducpenguin]

Thanks again!  All of the information has been very helpful...I will certainly have to take it somewhere to have someone who knows what they are doing fix it...I am a bit ignorant when it comes to motorcycle repairs...I would feel much better leaving it to the pros!

Someguy:  Thanks for the boost of confidence!  It is currently on an S4R so....I will ride it.

I'm not saying one way or another, but a patch is better than a plug and a Plug/Patch is best. That's what's sold at the above link and what is recommended on the Dunlop link also. Only disclaimer was not for over 75 mph use - not much of a disclaimer these days.

I feel your pain. Same thing just happened to me.  I replace the tire, but am ordering one of these some of these plug/patch things myself.

Yup...complete pain in the ass!  Get it back from the shop...which is an ordeal to get it there while running, now that I can't drive it up there and don't have a trailer is a bigger ordeal!  I will have to wait for some friends to help me out, and in the mean time...I get to miss the nice weather we are having!
