Got a question again T_T

 

I just found out my tyre punctured .. That explains why I'm going a little wobbly from time to time today .. Thought was the balance upset from the things in my box =X

 

Bad thing is, my wheel is pretty much deflated now.

 

So what are the remedies?

 

Heard of tyre repair kits, but never do before, so I'm afraid I might do it wrongly .

Or I just tow and replace tube? But will be quite exp I believe..

(OR if insurance will cover these things by any chance? )

 

Anyone can help? Thanks once again :)

 

 

 

ride to (not advisable) to any petrol koisk & pump.

phantom runs on tubeless tyre.

worst case, tow to pump which seems pretty, dumb i think. =x

unless its your tyre tht's injured, you'd hav to patch th tyre surface or change a new piece/set.

black&white saves life.

first things first.. Stop riding your punctured bike lahz... push to petrol station.. put in the punture worms... inflated your wheels and you'r good to go.. dun waste money on tow.. $20 per tow.. not worth it...

 

 

* phantom is using tubeless tires. just need a patch and you'r good to go.. dun need replace new tires *

Hey guys...not sure where to post this, but I really need an answer to it.

Some carparks listed sunday as 'Closed', but they don't have any kind of fence to block the entrance or anything when it's closed...is it illegal to park at those areas during periods which is 'closed'?

 

An example: http://gothere.sg/maps#q:1.384740%2C104.000828

The carpark located beside the Nicolle Drive list it as closed on sunday. Can I park there on sunday?

don't worry, it actually mean that its free after 5pm and free on sundays / public holidays...

 

and there are many more carparks along that coastal stretch... so no worries about parking... :smile:

Thanks for the info! :D

For a while I thought it's sort of illegal to park when a car park is closed.

 

Thinking of going there tomorrow.:cheeky:

Hmm...is the worm a permanent solution for punctured tyre?

Repaired with worm = can continue ride on till tyre wears off (e.g. 1-2 years)?

probably still can... just that the plugged area is weaker and more prone to puncture again...

Lots of places to get olive drab / matte green.

 

There's good one at art stores imported from the US that gives a ready made camo pattern that doesn't need primer. It's meant for hunting equipment and is possibly more durable than the GENERAL example (which is cracked all over). Put some aluminum boxes here and there, and a leather pouch for a submachine gun on the front fork... change to Silent Hunter's springer seat and you have something not unlike a WW2 Harley.

After 4 days of not riding, I finally went to take a look at my bike.

It was quite hard to start...but that's not the problem.

I finally heard the dreaded clicking noise on cold start...my cam chain tensioner. :weep:

 

Before I can get to change next week...is it safe to ride?
