Who invented the nail and why are they on the roads!?
Pulled into my destination in Springfield MO on Thursday morning, put the bike on the side stand and went to put the leathers in the right side saddlebag, CRAP! theres a nail sticking out of the back tire. To make matters worse, there are no Honda dealers in Springfield MO!! Got the tire plugged, after 230mi, got the bike home last night and to the dealer this morning. The wife warned me that we couldn't really afford a new wing...that's what happened the last time I picked up a nail, went from a 12 to a 1500! The dealer had tires in stock, got the bike on the rack and now I'm back on the road. Tires labor and tax $483 for the set of new Dunlop E3's, I was really hoping to get a few more thousand out of that set, but I guess 18000 ain't bad. Had to share. Ride Safe!
