Hey Lemmy, had my first flat tire today and didn't know exactly what to do. I saw your video and plugged my first tire successfully. I'm safe at home now. Thanks!!!
Thank you for this great video very well presented by Lemmy who really engages the viewer and am sure has given a lot of us motorcyclists who have seen this more confidence in tackling a roadside puncture. Ride Safe. Regards from the UK
you prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Jorge Kane i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Drive/ride on shoulders increase chance of picking up sharp debris! Diagonal cutting pliers can grab objects dug in flush with the tire + double as the "razor blade" to cut off excess plug. I always give a full turn after inserting the plug before yanking the tool out, insures the plug doesn't back itself out with it. Cold temperatures...need to get the plug hot and gummy first, be creative. ;)
I would add a marking tool to your repair kit. Something like white chalk or a china marker (grease pen). Once the puncture is found, you can circle the location so you don't loose sight of it again.
Same - had these kits for years and never had to use them as either the puncture wasn't plugable or i didn't notice until I got home and just took the tyre to get repaired lol. Only time I've used my bike kit was when my wife's car got a flat lol. The bloody tyre shop torqued the wheel nuts so tight we couldn't get three of them off even with a breaker bar and a lot of effort, so I remembered I had the plug and figured that'd get it to the shop. Watching this video I may have been a bit overzealous with the reaming lol. But yeah, did it's job - drover to the shop and got a proper repair done.
A compact bicycle hand pump works on tires... it just takes a while. Your pliers would be better at home. Instead carry a leatherman multitool. I never leave without one. You never know if you will need the needle nose pliers for pulling, twisting, hammering... or the knife to stab someone. Regardless of the need, they are handy.
@@motoryzen Hey, thank you for suggesting Motojitsu! Been checking it out. So useful! And step by step yet not long winded nor tooo technical. You've no idea how much I second guess myself and the need to practice in a parking lot when people stare and smirk at me, then to watch a vid of him speaking about that and its effectiveness! Just what I need.
Excellent video. The only things I'd add is with the reaming tool and plug insertion tool, buy a kit where the handles are METAL and not PLASTIC. Murphy's Law, whatever can go wrong, will go wrong. Those plastic handles will break JUST when you need them. Ask me how I know..... Also, scratch the pliers and instead keep a Leatherman or equivalent in your toolkit. Absolute frigging lifesaver.
Um, you forgot to put the rubber glue on the plug - it really makes a difference! Once the tire heats up an vulcanizes the rubber it will create an awesome seal... I've ridden my plugs for months until the tire was dead and needed replaced :-)
ok. but if you do with that type of plug just wait until that glue dries completely or the plug might slip. Just want you to be safe out there. I have family that owns a tire shop. They fix tires from a wheel barrels to big trucks. 👍
You mention off-hand to replace the CO2 with "regular" air that is mostly nitrogen. I think that is because nitrogen doesn't change volume as much with a temperature change, so the pressure is more stable. Is that correct?
I actually “repaired” a large hole in my tire in the middle of nowhere WBGV this summer. I put it in quotes because it was definitely a temporary repair until I could replace the tire two hours later. I had one Stop-n-Go plug and two gummy worms in it that closed the hole mostly. I was able to get about 15-20 miles before needing more air, stopping whenever I saw an auto repair shop to fill back up. Moral of the story, even if it doesn’t seal it, plug it and make your way to the closest dealer, filling up as you go!
Great video. I have the kit....reaming tool, plug tool etc as you showed....but no 'device' to connect the CO2 cartridge to. I always thought it connected t the flexible hose????
Had my first flat tyre yesterday. Slow leak so still moble. Nail had gone right in so couldnt find it. The guy tried to sell me a kit and i said Nah i will buy it when i need it! Will buy it tomorrow.
I carry a bicycle air pump the size a large cigar. Yes itll take a long time to pump up the tires but it's much smaller than 6 CO2 canisters. I'm more worried about space than the time it takes to pump a tire.
Just went thru this 3 days ago. Found a screw in my front tire. 45 mi from home. Holding air. Stopped at a close by Walmart... Grabbed patch kit. Went to the nearby Mobil station Made sure the air pump was working and the Chuck could get in there. Pulled the screw. Did this exact repair. Cruised easy home. IMMEDIATELY ordered proper INSIDE push through pin style patch from internet. Pulled the tire off the rim and did the 100% inside patch. Because..... ... .. FRONT TIRE !!! Gotta be 100% I suggest you do the same.
ZLA Lemmy if it wasn’t for your video, I wouldn’t have even ordered it, I feel totally comfortable now and glad I ordered it. I will be thanking you one day
If you are a 200#'er, straight handle may be ok, but t-handle is almost mandatory even for my athletic 180#. Can double the plugs together if have a big hole, just run 2 at same time. Can patch car, semi, motorcycle, all same. Probably not the safest to use with high pressure, replace tire or patch from inside for long term and not marginal (unsafe as hail, fyi). Crank Brothers make a sub 100 gram, 6" long, .75" diameter pump for ~$15, or co2 work. Thanks!
Lemmy thank you so much for the video. I scrolled through the comments but couldn't find anyone addressing the fact that you left a little of the plug when cutting. Is that intentional I'm guessing or should it be cut flush? Thank you!
Fun story: I ran over some glass from a previous night's truck crash on the highway. I used this same method, and believe it or not, rode home 1600km with 23 of these plugged into my tyre.I had to get a new tyre, but these are way more reliable than the mushroom type plugs on the long run home.
Thanks Lemmy . Well done. I talked to you a while ago with you about balancing beads with my Valkyrie. Could you do a video addressing your opinion. I think your view would help .
Also heat - they usually are designed for -20 to 49C, so if you live somewhere the air temp can get into the 40's it's definitely possible the sun and engine heat will push them past that. For the day to day though they're cheap, convenient and a lot faster than a foot pump. I personally recommend having both and taking what makes sense. Just don't leave your spent CO2's by the side of the road! Mountain road near me had a lot of construction work last spring as they were extending a lodge, lot of guys got punctures and the bloody cartridges were everywhere for months
Eh, it's really about pressure. So at altitude the relative pressure at the same temperature is higher because the outside air pressure is lower, and the same with higher temperature - at the same altitude, the contents of the canister expand and increase pressure when it's hot. So actually they act together - a hot day in the mountains is going to cause a much higher pressure difference than a cold day in the valley. As I say, I recommend both - horses for courses. The canisters are very convenient and easy when you're not in extremes of altitude/temp, and the pump is safer when you are.
@@jamesoren7238 yes i know that & because of that very reason i have seen it getting leaked & burst in very cold region which is at higher altitudes just an observation brother ✌️
Nice job with the video, it was very educational and helpful 👍 Just had my first tyre puncture and it was the front one. So how long will this plug last? Does the wheel need to be removed and sealed from the inside properly? Or will I have to replace the wheel? Also how many punctures can these tyres take before they need to be replaced? Thanks in advance 😊
if its between your thumbs is it still repairable?? Just got new tires and within two hundred miles my back tire got a nail and its right under where my thumb would be
Is temp fix.. Permanent fix requires removing tire and melting a patch to apply to inside of tire.. No need to replace tire for small punctures unless puncture is in the side of tire since holes in side not safe to repair as can lead to blowout
Is putting a plug temporary or can someone drive a motorcycle tire a couple thousand miles with a plug in?? I just got a new Back tire and it doesn’t even have 500 miles on it and I ran over a nail the other day and I’m trying to figure out what to I don’t have the money right now to buy a new tire and the one I just got is new and I’m wondering if I put a plug in it will it be safe enough to drive? at least get a couple thousand miles out of the tire till I can afford to buy another one
If it's in the tread zone, a shop may be able to dismount the tire and pull through a combo patch from the inside after prepping the inner part of the tire. It seals the hole and applies a patch with cold vulcanizing cement.
On the side of the road on a Softail Slim, you aren't going to be able to repair a tube. You would need to remove the affected wheel from the bike, then remove the tire, then remove the tube, then either patch or replace the tube, then reinstall the tube and tire, then fully inflate the tube enough to seat the tire bead. It's just not feasible on anything bigger than a dirt bike, so for a Harley with tubes, you get your bike towed to a dealer or shop. -DrewZilla
@@RevZilla Thank you, Drew! I've been trying to decide between Harley Slim or Sport Glide. I like the Slim, aesthetically, but concerned about the spoked wheels. Can the wheels be switched out for wheels that accommodate tubeless tires?
moyorcycle repair shop don't patch up tires due to liability they'll sell you a tire also charge you for the installation Just good to have a tire repair kit
All shop round my way refuse to fix punchers as you ssid liability issues they will sell you a new tyre chsrge 75 a hour and then charge you for disposal of the tyre they took off i hate garages they rip you off beyond belief learn to fix your motorbike or car unless you like throwing money or giving money away moat fixtures are not hard to do
Yup mainly left by ahole road cyclists who just litter their crap around. I've stopped several times over the years on my bicycle to clean up the junk that roadies leave by the side of the road.
so i'm Sh*t out of luck. Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV (140, 300cc size) is the only tire i'll put on my wheels, and both front and rear are out of stock. this is my only mode of transportation, guess i'll be riding around on a bicycle until yall restock it
Man I hope I never have dry mouth if I get a flat. Never realized how much spit was involved! lol Great video!!
You can always urinate on it.
i should call my ex when i get a flat she would spit on it when she sucked it
@@703c 😂🤣
My girl could sit on the tire after she dismounts the bike, she gets soakkingggg riding
Hey Lemmy, had my first flat tire today and didn't know exactly what to do. I saw your video and plugged my first tire successfully. I'm safe at home now. Thanks!!!
You flattened your tire to help others. a true act of kindness and sacrifice ♥
It was probably worned out

You had me at ‘thrusting the knurled shaft into the tire a couple of times’ 😂

Great instructional video. Back in the day, when I lacked funds, those plugs were my permanent fix.😀
I carry a kit but have never had to use it. This is how I thought it was done, but it's nice to see confirmation from someone that knows.
Next time before your next tyre change, maybe you want to try poke some hole and make repair practice on that old Tyre in your house garage comfort

Thanks for this! Had a kit, just not 100% sure how to use it, got the phone out, checked out this video and 15 mins later was on my way! :)
Thanks so much, I can believe you actually damage your front tire for this video, YOU ROCK MEN.

Carry the tire repair kit and mini pump all the time. Got them from your favorite retailer

I really like the stop n go kit with the mushroom shaped rubber plugs. I trust them more than the rubbery string kind.
I saw those. They work better?

Not with the type of plug he used. The old style plug yes. (non-sticky kind) That was a vulcanizing plug. All in one. 👍
@@vrich3733 - Good to know! Thanks
@@vrich3733 I'd still just put a blob of vulcanising glue around the edges of the puncture after finishing reeming better safe than sorry.
ok. but if you do with that type of plug just wait until that glue dries completely or the plug might slip. Just want you to be safe out there. I have family that owns a tire shop. They fix tires from a wheel barrels to big trucks. 👍
Thanks for the demo. I'm sold on the kit you're using, just purchased it from your site.

This works only on tubeless tyres or to normal tyres also ?🤔
There's no difference between plugs for motorcycle tires and plugs for car tires, is there?
robtw1970 the sticky rubber "plug" might be slightly bigger for a car but other than that, I don't think so
Why didn’t you use the glue on the sticky strip before you put it in ,is it because you are replacing it shortly, or did your kit not have it .
I notice that some of those kits comes with glue tube. In this video there is no mention of the glue, is really need it ?
Is there any suggestion of how deep you should push down that brown gooey thing into the tire?
If you are a 200#'er, straight handle may be ok, but t-handle is almost mandatory even for my athletic 180#. Can double the plugs together if have a big hole, just run 2 at same time.

Hey Lem. Great video. Very well spoken. Thanks man.
If I have a gas station literally within a mile, can I ride the back without co2? Provided I get everything ready and plug it quick
Fun story: I ran over some glass from a previous night's truck crash on the highway. I used this same method, and believe it or not, rode home 1600km with 23 of these plugged into my tyre.I had to get a new tyre, but these are way more reliable than the mushroom type plugs on the long run home.
I just used the slime repair guu and you know what it did not work. Right now going for the repair kit you just showed. Wish me luck.
Ah Lem, I'll miss your vids
Thanks Lemmy . Well done. I talked to you a while ago with you about balancing beads with my Valkyrie. Could you do a video addressing your opinion. I think your view would help .
try on both cruisers and sport bikes! Would like to see the difference between having balancing beads and normal stock tyre
Top presentation Lemmy.. very very useful to know ..
Big old Barge lol 🤣
his there something you can use if you have tube tire on a street motorcycle for a temporary fix
Some soapy water from a nearby gas station bathroom or friendly residence is also a great way to find/verify the source of a leak.
this guy is so likeable. i wish he was my riding buddy
gay
lol
Thank you I hope I never have to do this but thanks to you I'll know what to do if it does 👍
Nice video.i would like to see a video about carburetor clean an adjust and cyncronie
whats your opinion/experience on/with the repair screws?
Great vid Lem, love watching your content, keep em coming and keep the rubber side down 👍
You're awesome, thank you, Sir!
I have seen co2 cartridges burst at higher altitude a compact foot pump is a better alternative👍

If it's so close to the sidewall that your thumb covers it, then unfortunately, you need a new tire. -DrewZilla

thank you aqua man thank you
Great job Lem!
Thanks Lem, that is some great info!
thanks. Ive learnt something new
What about the puncture repair sprays? I always carry one but actually never had to use it. Are they any worth?
Don’t use those. Your tire guy will thank you for using a traditional plug kit.
wheres the video for tubed tire repair?
Is this a permanent fix or will you still need to buy a new tire? My tire has a nail in almost exactly the same spot

Great vid, Lemster. You’re so full of spit, man. At first, I thought you were going to tackle a tire on that semi across the street! 🏍👍🏻🏍

Just use bike seal or ride on tyre sealant stops punctures lasts for life of tyre
