#979882 makriluc (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Of all the things that might be on the road. Can you imagine and it went all the way inside the tire.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #979884 Silverado17 (User) 06 Roadstar Silverado Fresh Boarder Posts: 73 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Good thing it didn't cause a blow out!   Logged     2006 Roadstar Silverado Roadstar, the ONLY way to Ride!

In my bad luck, I was still lucky. I felt the bike starting to waunder on the road at 40mph, so I was able to slow down to a stop fairly easy. Had to rent a special trailer to haul the bike home. But still cheaper than having it towed.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #979887 drumsonly2002 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1384 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Can the tire be fixed? i had an 1100 V Star with a plug but someone mentioned the tire was toast. I rode the bike like that with no problems until sold. Discounted the bike so the guy could get new rubber as I wasn't 100% sure it was safe.   Logged     If it is broke, fix it. If it is not, make it better!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #979891 Penguin (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3307 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Cast wheel or spokes? Cast wheel I would have plugged it and been on my way. Even if it took 2 plugs   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #979892 RonK (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1031 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   -- And it was in metric, so you can still use it on your bike! --   Logged     [img size=150][/img][img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #979893 BikerRon (User) Sour Kraut Platinum Boarder Posts: 4189 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   That's one way to increase your tool collection. Front tire kicked it up. The odds were pretty high to get it to land just right that the back tire would get impaled with it rather than just kick it to the curb.   Logged     ' width='450' border='0' style='max-width:450px; ' />   The administrator has disabled public write access. #979908 makriluc (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Unfortunately the tire is toated as I tried to get as close to service station as I could to inflate it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #979913 Penguin (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3307 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   After that happened to my brother on a ride I started carrying a small 12v compressor in my bags along with a plug kit.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #979919 twowheeltherapy (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3297 Re:Caught a 7mm allen key in my rear tire 1 Year, 7 Months ago   Same thing happened to me on an almost brand new Commander II a year and a half ago. Not sure of the exact size allen wrench but it was small too. Felt the back end getting squirrely while exiting the freeway a few miles from home. Since I have an '01 with tubes, just bought a new tube and called it good. Been riding it like that ever since.   Logged     Last Edit: 2016/07/24 22:32 By twowheeltherapy.     The administrator has disabled public write access.
