Say hello to your new and free tire, so long as you have OEM tires. I don't believe the wheel and tire coverage pays for any other brand

That Sucks, I hate to put the bike on a trailer. Hopefully I will be able to ride the bike there slowly about 20mi. I'm waiting to see if it holds air. If all else fails, I have Soos as Back-up! You do know that Soos does HouseCalls Don't You?

Careful not to use up that last bit of tread keeping you over the 3/32

House calls are done within reason and the trip sounds appealing but baby has been put to bed for the winter.

Send it here on the rail, don't forget that one wheeled thingy, as I might need storage space for the long trip back to Your place. The trip should'nt be a problem for You after the Iron Butt award. lol

I was pleasantly surprised, needless to say.

UPDATE: Took My bike to Barnett's HD today. Rick, the service writter, looked at the nail, and measured 5/32 thread depth and told me They would put a new rear tire on at no charge. Since the front was at 3/32, I told the to replace it for $189.56. Now as soon as I can get some Tire chains I will be off to visit SOOS. Barnett Hd would not install studs as SOOS recommended! Can't hate HD's ESP!
