    Went out on Friday to take the Blade for it’s MOT only to find the brand new (less then 250 miles) back tyre flat!

    Plugged the tyre and rang the MOT place and explained. They MOT’d it with the plug and put it on as advisory, as it is not an MOT failure.

    Hated riding on the plugged tyre so now have to get the cost of yet another back tyre past Mrs Kat – BUGGER!

    Get another tyre the same colour and hope MrsK doesn’t notice… ;D

    Seriously that is a bummer, had it happen to me a few years ago on my FZ750, had to junk a 100 mile tyre

    Yep, those blue tyres are a real giveaway!  ;D

    250 miles is very bad luck mate.

    You really don’t have much luck with tyres on that bike!

    Nope – Mind you I’ve only had a total of 2 punctures on a bike. Unfortunately, both on this one a few months apart.
