I was doing about 60 in a straight line and heard a pop. I then noticed the riding felt a lot different. Came to a safe stop and turned the bike off and as soon as I did that, I heard the air still hissing out of my rear tire. Found a small jagged looking hole right on the corner of a tread. Nothing was still in the tire. Called a buddy up, loaded it in his truck. Now I‘m getting a new tire. Just curious on what could have caused it. 2003 Yamaha R6, tube less tires. Thanks.
my guess you ran over some debris that was to large to stay in the tire . even a sharpe stone can cut a tire you never know what is in the road that has fallen off a truck or been tossed on the road
Any piece of scrap in the road. One night I got a flat on the way home. I thought I broke a spoke at first. The steel rod sticking out of the tire was the right length and diameter. Turned out to be just something I picked up going around the curve.
