Fiddy Flats!

anyone else have a big problem w/ flats on thier gahd damn fiddy's? Ever since i did a street tire im popin tubes like mad. I took my tire off , even re-taped the inside of the wheel cause i thought the spokes were pokin it or somethin.

if you're running the same pressure as on your 900, I can see why you're getting flats.

ftrain is a decent person
tube pinching the rim, small piece of glass in tire, or spoke poking through.

Stop drinking bud light bottles and switch to cans. No glass to break with cans.

put a little more air, easy to pinch a tube (especiallyo n the street) with high g-forces which flex the tire and pinch the tube...

if it is pinched as soon as you change it-keep practicing, cuz you effed up!!

also try heavy duty tubes....

the street tire i have is SO F'n hard to change, i can change my 900 tires 10x easier - things stiff as poop.

My stock tire i took off w/ a screw driver & my hand. I think im gonna put a knobby back on it.

And the 1st flat i did have was from runin' gangsta pressure in the back tire, 1st circle i tried pinched the tube & i got a flat

im gonna make a dealer change it so i can yell @ them.
