Tyre Repair
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 115.
A tyre that is repaired, either temporarily or permanently, will have
lower speed and performance limits than a new or undamaged tyre.
A temporary repair can sometimes be made in an emergency
situation. However, since a temporary repair may not hold, you must
ride very slowly, preferably without any cargo, and have the tyre
replaced or permanently repaired as soon as possible. (For more
information on temporary repairs, see If You Have a Flat Tyre,
page 215.)
A permanent repair, such as an internal plug patch, can be made if
a tyre has only a small puncture in the tread area. However you may
not be able to safely carry as much weight. If you choose to have a
tyre repaired, be sure the repair work is performed by a professional.
If you have a tyre professionally repaired at a non-Honda facility, we
recommend that you have the work checked by your dealer.
