Motorcycle tyre repair - How to plug a bike tire

[TrollingForYou]

Is it ok to use two plugs in the one hole? I tried one plug but the hole is too big. Two plugs seal it up.

@DiarmaidGNR sounds lethal to me mate :/

One of these repairs got me back from Gibraltar last year. I rang my mate at the bike shop for advice and its still in 2500 miles later. It is checked every ride for leakage etc but to be honest a good repair will last the life of the tyre. If I was riding a faster bike though I would have got the tyre replaced ASAP. These kits (fitted correctly) are a great bonus and worth keeping one under the seat.

dont you have to use some sort of cement or glue on those wicks ? the sets they are selling here contain some sort of glue.

lol he said insert

[starguard]

This only works on Tubeless Tires correct?

[shzze]

@starguard yeah tubed tyres are easyer just put a patch on it and repair it like a push bike whell or just buy a new innertube since there not that much

[jagsaiyan]

that 1 little air can filled up the entire tire?! No way! Thats.. crazy. lol I dont even think thats possible. -_-

[JRBeaman]

@jagsaiyan You need to realize the air in the can is compressed.

The tyre repaired was close to being worn out and needed replacing. Ok for demo purposes I guess but I would not have wasted money on a temporary repair of a tyre in this shape. More emphasis needs to be made on the fact that this type of repair is only TEMPORARY!!!

[cycletorquedotcom]

@reverenddavid – You're right on both points. It was an old tyre, we smashed holes in it, fixed them, then replaced the tyre. Mind you, nearly all tyre repair systems say their repairs are temporary, especially any which can be completed on the side of the road.

@reverenddavid

I repaired my tyre from my car and it held indefinitely. I NEVER had a problem again with it.

Awesome vid guys very helpfull.

[mike2526]

Can somebody qualified write me if I repair my scooter tyre this way is it temporary solution or permanent? Am I supose to go afterwards ASAP to the service for tyre exchange or just fix it like this and forget it?

[05fly]

@mike2526 Dood if you have tubeless tyres this will work fine on your scooter to get you home but for your own safety you should have any punctured tyre, either repaired or not inspected by a motorcycle technition as soon as possible in case the carcass has been compromised or the plug is not correctly installed and if it is a front tyre with puncture i would replace it with a new tyre regardless
