http://www.snopes.com/photos/accident/seemotorcycle.asp Very old story, with at least two versions. I've even seen one of the photos in a local newspaper,...

I heard that the "Donkey Lady" was driving the car and "Bigfoot" was riding the bike.The only eyewitness was the "Lochness Monster" and it can't be found for...
On a 1985 650, which is tubeless. I've got an almost brand new tire (BridgestoneBattlax BT-45 Sport) on the back of my bike and picked up a good old roofing...
Rick, If the nail hole isn't too large, you can install an inner tube and get the rest of your tread life out of your tire. I've said before that I wouldn't...
Around here tire shops won't plug any tire, they use a patch applied to the inside of the tire with glue. Sort of a high-tech duct tape approach. In an...
I've plugged tires with no issues at all and ridden a hundred miles or more to get home. Once home I pulled the tire off the rim and using special plug that...
I'm not saying it is right, but I got a hole about 3000 miles ago - nail in rear tire. I plugged it and it's been fine since. Tire is now nearly worn out an...

It's probably not a big issue with a Nighthawk, but I do want to mention that putting a tube into a tubeless tire lowers its speed rating. That is because the...
Yeah,the "mushroom" type of plug is the real safe way to go as far as plugs are concerned.You need to be careful when reaming the hole though (for any plug...

I plugged my rear tire (with one of those mushroom-shaped plugs inserted by an "injector") about 5 years ago and put 5000 miles on it before it developed a...
Thank you....everyone, for your great feedback. I plugged the tire this morning (it was a standard style plug set-up) and after the fella was finished I asked...
Bring it to a tire shop and have them correctly install a patch plug and you'll never have a problem. It'll last the life of the tire. I had one in the rear...
I would prefer a capped-plug or a patch over a mere plug, by far. The hole location isn't bad. Tone down the corners. On a MC the rear is less issue than the...
