Riding your motorcycle with a
temporary tire repair can be
risky. If the temporary repair
fails, you can crash and be
seriously injured or killed.
If you must ride with a
temporary tire repair, ride slowly
and carefully and do not exceed
30 mph (50 km/h) until the tire is
permanently repaired or
replaced.

Taking Care of the Unexpected
If You Have a Flat Tire
A flat tire is always unwelcome, especially if you are far from help. If you think
you are losing air, or you hit a pothole or hard object, pull safely to the side of
the road so you can inspect the tires and assess the situation. (Be sure to park on
a firm, level surface and use the center stand for support.) You should examine
the tire treads and sidewalls for foreign objects or damage. If you find a tire that
has been punctured or damaged, you have two options.
Option 1:
Have Your Motorcycle Transported
If a tire has a major puncture or a cut in the tread or sidewall, or the bead has
come loose from the rim, there is probably not much you can do except have
your motorcycle transported to a Honda dealer or other qualified service facility.
(USA only: For information about 24-hour emergency roadside assistance, see
page
.) Even with a simple puncture, this may be the safest and least
troublesome solution. For transporting instructions, see page .
Option 2:
Make a Temporary Roadside Repair
If a tire has only a minor nail puncture and is not completely flat, you may be
able to make an emergency repair that could allow you to continue riding to
where you can get the tire replaced or permanently repaired.
