what happened Jarv? I just got finished with a school project from hell!!! Why do teachers insist on giving hellatious projects to kids and expect them to do it in 3 days? Tell Vicki that she better have mercy on us parents when she graduates or I'm coming up to new York and kicking her butt on behalf of all the frustrated exhausted parents of America!

I used it... told I was good to go... and was put back on the road... got impatient went to pass a car and the bike went ape shit... wigg'n around like a fuck'n stripper have'n a siezure... I was doing about 85 at the time... I rode it out and found slime all over the bottom of my bike... the nail came out followed by all the air and slime. I was 100 miles from the nearest town in Alaska... with 1 bar of signal on my cell. shit sucked... learned alot from that trip... mainly don't trust anyones opinion about being good to go if I don't feel comfortable with it... it's not good to go. a patched/plugged tire is not to be trusted for more than limping around until it can be replaced Slime sucks dick... and is a FUCKING PAIN IN THE ASS to clean off your bike. People in Alaska will stare at you on the side of the road... but will not stop... unless they're already planning on doing so to take a picture. it gets cold quick when the sun goes down in AK... 60 at 5... 31 at 8. oh and yes... this may be common knowledge to alot of you... but I was told this by a very reputible shop that I went to to get my tire replaced... they didn't have it in... so they said... here... put this slime in... it'll be good to go... I even asked... for how long... he said... it's a perminant fix... the flag came on in mind... but I figured it'd last at least one day... nope Last edited by Mr Lefty; 11-14-2008 at 01:46 AM.. |

because they told me it would seal around the nail... effectivly "cementing" the nail in. BS.
like I said... it was a stupid decision on my end to trust them... and I got burned... but shit... I've trusted the advice of mechanics many times... and come out way ahead... just this time... it was a very dangerous risk... and all for a joy ride... something I very easily could have pushed back a week. just becarefull |
