Bandit 1200s 2001 nail in tyre



I have a small nail pointing out of my rear tyre. May not go down when i
pull it but need to do it when i know i am near a place that can repair
or replace in Hammersmith London.

Anyone know of a good place in Hammersmith W6 or near by?
Erm, there's a shop in the Goldhawk Road. Reg Orpin.

Anyone tried removing the rear tyre before on this bike? is it easy?
No idea.

Anyone recommend good multi compound tyre (hard middle, soft outer)?
No idea

Is it safe to still ride if nail does not cuase tyre to go down?
Yes. Pull it out and see - it might not be punctured. Don't carry on
riding with it in the tyre, although it'll be Ok to get you to the bike
shop.
Yes

Is it safe to still ride hard if repaired if right in middle center of tyre?
Yes
Yes

Goop, dear boy (if you're really worried)

Ask me tomorrow
