[QUOTE="keithaba, post: 244831, member: 3720"] I was on my honda 919 a few years ago on the highway. Noticed it felt kinda weird, but just didn't think anything of it. About 15 miles into the ride, a guy pulled up, honked his horn, and yelled that the rear tire looked low. I pulled off and it was completely flat. Had picked up a nail or something and it fell out. Nothing at all hapened to the tire, and I was running at like 70 mph for at least 10 miles. The tire was a Bridgestone Battle Ax. I guess I got lucky nothing worse happened, but I assume that bike tires are made not to blow out the same way a car or truck tire may. [/QUOTE]
