Punctured tire...again!

Freedom Powersports mounted and balanced my newest rear tire just a few weeks ago and charged me less than $35 (I bought the new tire off eBay for less than a bill). Ask for Tina, she and her husband ride as well, good folks. Anyway, I took it off the bike, took them just the rear wheel and tire and I also installed it myself. I generally do my work myself.
Last year, I had a problem with my brand new wheels and the rear tire went down so fast on my way home that I had to get my buddy to get my truck and trailer to come get me off the side of North Memorial Parkway. Long story but I took Freedom Powersports the whole bike the next morning, they removed the rear wheel, broke it down, tubed it and put it all back together for less than $90 and they had to get the Michelin tube from Cycle Gear that day. Your 200mm tire may cost alittle more, but in my opinion, they are going to be very hard to beat.
I live in Hazel Green BTW. If you need any help with anything let me know and I'll see what I can do to help you out. Good luck with it.

Thanks racerkvn; I have used Freedom as well. Tina used to work at Rocket but when the new owner took over he wanted his own people I guess.
I plugged the tire and will get Freedom to put a tube in it Friday. The plug seems to be holding air OK but I won't press my luck.
By the way, have you tried out the new Indians at Freedom? Last couple of weeks they have had free food and test rides going on. Still nothing could replace my springer at this time, just was fun to try an Indian.
