There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Bummer..!!
you could go most anywhere to have them try and find the leak. Problem is most shops will not plug a tire unless the hole is in the center of the tire and they pull the tire out and patch from the inside. I plug my own with a mushroom plug kit. Can find them on amazon ebay etc. These eork well and have never had a problem after using them....:gaah:

Make sure your valve stem is tight and if it is, chances are you
have a tack or nail somewhere in the tire. Might try jacking it up, turning wheel to look for such. Also you can increase air pressure to 40lb or so and listen closely while you turn the wheel to see if you can hear any air escaping...although not likely. Another method, if its possible, use a bottle sprayer and squirt soapy water all over as you turn, watching for air bubbles. Otherwise, have dealer pull and examine from the inside.

I hate to say this; go get a new tire... :shocked:
As much at it'll stink; it'll stink a lot less, than if that tire lets go on you at speed... in traffic! :yikes:
What's your life worth to your family?

Most MC shops will not patch a MC tire and they will probably treat the Spyder the same way. There are some dealers in San Angelo that sell Ride-on, probably the MC rather than Auto variety, but it will seal a slow leak in the tread area with no problem. Probably spend around $30, but you get a sealed tire, better balance, and more miles on that tire. The ride-on site has a dosage calculator, for the stock it is 16 oz IIRC. If you decide to order it online instead, you can use the code lamonster to get a discount.
