Patch plugs.
Use one of these and you can keep that tire on there until the wear bars are up. Best of luck!

i was a little leary about patchin it from horror stories ive heard but i didnt think it would be to bad since its right in the center and not on the edge but idk.

I did the plug patch combo on my last tire on Isabelle.

Mike still has the same tire and going strong. Mine too was near the center portion of the tread. Yours is smack dab in the exact center.

That does suck though. I got my nail in the tire with about 150-200 miles on the new one. So aggravating.

Yup, 3000 miles since I got the bike, plus whatever Nate put on the tire after he had it patched. Hold's air like a champ still.

yea very aggravating first screw or nail ive ever had tho so not doin to bad i guess

I agree, patch n plug.

Ok cool, I'll give it a shot with the patch and plug, tires only got about 1500 miles on em. Thanks for the info!

Here's a PP2CT that I patched-n-plugged. Got 8K+ out of it.
