Want to learn something good?

Throw far as far as you can that can of fix a flat! NEVER use that shit on your bike!!! or even anything that goes faster than 8mph. I've used the greeen slime stuff on a mower and its good! A MOWER!

Put the FI concentrate in your car gas tank. Never buy again. You especially dont need that shit under the bike seat! BAD BAD IDEA

When you want to buy a good FI cleaner... buy Seafoam (search it here).

I have a plug kit that I keep with me and some cartridges for reinflating. What are your thoughts on those? I also have AMA road side assistance

Nothing wrong with that at all. It's nothing something I would ride on long term. But to get me home in a pinch, sure why not. Just remember you put a plug in the tire and replace the tire as soon as you can.

Congrats on your first week!

1. AAA does not offer roadside assistance to bikes unless you have motorcycle(and RV) coverage.

2. A plugged tire won't last longer than an unplugged tire. It doesn't have a shorter lifespan either.

3. Practice is a good thing. When did that become debatable?
