Tire Repair
Refer to Saf ety Precautions on page 77 .
A tire that is repaired, either temporarily or permanently, will have lower
speed and performance limits than a new or undamaged tire.
A temporary repair can sometimes be made in an emergency situation.
However, since a temporary repair may not hold, you must ride very
slowly and have the tire replaced or permanently repaired as soon as
possible. (For more information on temporary repairs, see If You Have a
Flat Tire, page 175 .)
A permanent repair, such as an internal plug patch, can be made if a tire
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 tire repaired,
be sure the repair work is performed by a professional.
If you have a tire professionally repaired at a non-Honda facility, we
recommend that you have the work checked by your Honda dealer.
