Motorcycle practice: repairing a flat tire

When you die with a tubeless tire (no tube), there are only two solutions: change the tire or get it repaired. Since few of us go around with spare tires, here's an illustrated guide to repair kits. To study before going on vacation.

Ten kilometers after leaving for vacation or on the other side of France, a motorcycle puncture is always an EXACT tile, unthinkable that never happens at the right time, and preferably on a Sunday evening in the countryside. In order not to get stuck on the side of the road, there are repair kits for tubeless tires. You also need to know how to use it, the instructions for use are often quite concise. ZorG, a Moto-Station forum member, tested it after a run on the bolt.

The kit allows you to start over in a few minutes

With numerous photos and explanations, you will learn how to avoid getting stuck with a flat tire. There are obviously many types of repair kits, but the methods used are similar. The item responsible for the puncture must be removed (screw, nail, hex wrench, etc.), insert the pre-glued wick to improve sealing, before re-inflating. The repair kit does not take up much space and usually costs less than 30 euros (for several repairs in one kit); If you have enough room for one, it would be a shame to miss out on a good way not to ruin your vacation.
