Of course nothig would have helped my first flat-2 16d duplex nails in the rear. this light bike seemed to gain 300lbs with a flat rear tire and trying to push it.
That's why I am looking into this now, before I get a motorcycle. With a bicycle, I can pull out the old tube, put in a new one, give it a shot of air and I'm on my way; takes 10 minutes or less. Or call my daughter, load the bike in the trunk, and I'm on my way. I have read that motorcycle flats are rare, but with my luck I would get that 'rare' flat 1:00 AM, in the middle of nowhere. But if getting a motorcycle flat is as rare as getting a car flat then I am being a little paranoid about it.
