About 350 miles on my rear tire I got a screw. Sprayed some soapy water on it and saw tiny bubbles. Called the dealer, they said the would be able to patch it depending on where its at but they don’t recommend a patch on street bike tires.

Most of threads I’ve read say it should be ok if done correctly. But the question that made me buy a new tire is “would you trust your life to a patch?”
