Push
the
valve
stem
back
into
the
rim
so
that
it
is
no
longer
passes
through
the
rim.
Remembering
where
the
puncture
occurred
on
the
tire
(if
you
were
able
to
identify
the
puncture
location),
pull
the
tube
out
of
the
tire
(you’ll
be
pulling
it
out
between
the
tire
and
the
rim
on
the
side
where
you
separated
the
tire
from
the
rim).
Carefully
inspect
the
tube
in
the
area
adjacent
to
the
tire
puncture
location
and
inspect
for
the
source
of
the
leak.
If
you
find
it
and
if
it
is
small
(they
almost
always
are),
you
can
most
likely
patch
it
as
a
temporary
fix.
If
the
tear
is
more
extensive,
you
should
replace
the
tube.
If
you
can’t
find
the
leak,
partially
inflate
the
tube
and
listen
for
hissing.
You
may
have
to
put
the
partially
inflated
tube
near
your
ear
and
rotate
it
until
you
find
the
leak.
If
you
are
near
water,
you
can
immerse
the
tube
and
look
for
bubbles
to
locate
the
leak.
If
you
hear
it
but
can’t
see
it,
you
can
rub
spit
around
the
general
area
and
look
for
the
leak.
Before
you
reinstall
the
tube
(either
one
you’ve
patched
or
a
new
one),
reach
in
and
gingerly
feel
around
the
inside
of
the
tire.
Look
for
anything
that
might
damage
the
tube
when
you
reinstall
it.
Warning!
Exercise
caution
(if
there
is
something
sticking
into
the
tire,
don’t
cut
yourself
on
it).
If
you
find
anything,
remove
it.
Gently
insert
either
the
patched
or
a
new
tube
into
the
tire.
Position
it
so
that
the
valve
stem
is
aligned
with
the
hole
in
the
rim.
Push
the
valve
stem
through
the
hole
in
the
rim
and
then
reinstall
the
10mm
nut
on
the
valve
stem
to
lock
the
valve
stem
in
place.
Gently
tuck
the
tube
completely
in
to
the
tire.
Reinstall
the
tire
on
the
rim
using
tire
irons.
Take
care
not
to
pinch
the
tube
between
the
tire
and
the
rim
(and
don’t
damage
the
tube
with
the
tire
irons)
when
reseating
the
tire.
Liberal
use
of
spray
lubricant
will
help.
Reinstall
the
tire
and
wheel
on
the
motorcycle
before
you
inflate
the
tube.
This
is
the
reverse
of
the
process
I
described
above.
After
accomplishing
the
above,
inflate
the
tire
and
to
seat
it
on
the
rim.
