I had a blow out two wks ago and it felt aweful. You can't lean into a turn or your tire feels like its gonna flip off the rim. It also sounds crazy. I could here this airplane sound just roaring. I didn't know what happened and thought my whole rear end was gonna fall off, swingarm and all. Doing a wheelie. Nope. Can't help you there.

These tires are too tough to get a blow out like one in a car. I hit something and bent the back rim and lost all of the air. But I still rode like 30 miles home on the flat. Just felt really loose in turns. Just look at everone that does 12's- we all ride around with almost flat tires and have no problems, atleast I haven't had any yet

Actually I have done long burnouts till I went through the belts and blew the tire out, but no one should be riding around with tires like that- thats just stupid

i dont know about that man, if you cant even afford a tire (get a used one maybe), then how do you think you are prepared to fix your bike after you crash cause your tire blows out doin a wheelie?? cause even after that you still gotta buy a tire plus whatever else breaks that you cant just ziptie or rig up
