Zutt
Supercharged
Was riding, stopped at a rest, and this gentleman getting off his BMW and laser vision points out a nail in my front tire. A bummer to say the least with only 1K miles on it.
Then a bunch of younger men who had just got off their supersports bikes, came over to admire the Rocket, and they advised just pulling it out and patching it, stating that they have done the same with their sports bikes and ridden thousands of miles afterwards.
The question to this esteemed forum, is it safe to patch the front tire (I've never had to do that), or should I just take it to dealer and replace it?
P.S: Between seeing it at the rest stop and getting home (20 min ride), I found that part of the head was broken off.
Thank you all.
