View Full Version : Motorcycle tire valve stem leaking
It's a tubeless tire on a street bike. I just took it out of storage to clean up and sell, and the rear valve stem looks poorly seated and is leaking. Can these things be fixed from the outside, or does the tire have to come off?
Depends on the type but tfog probly has a trick for taking care of it.

Got it solved.
Loose valve stem ?
Broken. It must have gotten hit in the garage. I got it replaced locally and took the old beast for one last rip through the canyon north of Deckers.
Off to Craigslist it goes.
They rot over time, and become brittle. Sorry to hear you're selling the R1, Tim.
The R1 is long gone. This one is my Suzuki Bandit 1200. Fantastic all around motorcycle. I've had it on two night two-up trips and a couple of track days. Very versatile.
Unfortunately, hanging off doesn't do squat for old knees. I just can't ride it the way I'd like to anymore.
