[QUOTE="101stpathfinder, post: 1439476, member: 18625"] I-25 was going so well. I was running about 2 hours ahead of time limits, when the nail (That I couldn’t find) came out of the tire. At 80 mph the tire went flat very quickly. High speed wobble scared the crap out of me. I had to pump the fuel from aux tank to main tank, remove the bags and unload the trunk before I could put the bike on center stand. Found the hole when I was working the bead. Sticky string held after 1/2 hour of my compressor running. Stopped down the road (60 miles) to use air pump at a gas station. I was able to complete the 17 hour Gold ride with less than an hour to spare. I arrived around noon the following day at my fathers. Oil change and no luck getting tire patched or headlight bulb replaced. I will make a decision on the I-35 ride later tonight. [/QUOTE]
