Can You Still Ride a Motorcycle with a Flat Tire?
1 Answers
No. The vacuum tires of a motorcycle cannot be used when completely flat. Continuing to ride will result in loss of stability, severe tire damage, and even more serious wheel rim deformation. Additional Information: If a nail is stuck in the tire, you can still ride at a slower speed for a short period as long as there is still air pressure in the tire. This is because when a nail punctures a vacuum tire, the internal pressure of the tire causes the airtight layer around the nail to be pressed against the puncture, creating a sealing effect under pressure that prevents or slows down air leakage. Therefore, if a vacuum tire is punctured by a nail, do not pull it out. Instead, ride slowly to a repair shop to have the tire fixed.
