About 3 days after I bought a repair kit, I got a flat rear tire. Kit saved me a bundle. It's a quick and easy fix, so I got one for my SUV also.

MOSTWANTED: Who's doing your paint work? I'm always looking for someone to ride with, since my buddy had to take his bike back home to Michigan, so whenever you're up for a ride, shoot me a PM.

If they dont have one, I'm sure they would order one for you.

I've got the one from stopngo. It really doesn't matter which one you get, but that you have one. It does sound like you had one h#ll of a ride. I hope she's still your girlfriend.

Yeah...she says she still enjoyed the evening. Funny thing is, I got a flat heading to her house for our second date sometime last year. This big bike has just been bad luck. Oh well. I ended up ordering a kit with two 45gram cartridges so I should be able to get enough air in the tire to ride just about anywhere if I have to.
