i had to get back home, had tire go flat 50ks from home,dunlop rear held up real good,just felt like i was riding on tar snakes,sidewall was no worse for wear.whoda thunk it?
 
with lower speeds on a streetbike tire you should be ok. They have a firm "sidewall"

on a cruiser, you would have had a hard time, and possibly damaged the rim


Good to see you got it home, none the less
 
maybe its just me but if i rode 50km on a flat i would probably ditch the tire afterwards due to potentially damaged sidewalls...
 
tire looks the same as it did before it went flat.put a dunlop Q2 190 55 17,love the way the bike turns in with the 55.chiller,you gotta be kidding. i would ditch it due to the tire was so bald it wore a hole in it.sidewall was least of my trouble.

Yeah, common chiller. All that extra heat buildup and weird contorting of the carcass for only 50km couldn't possibly damage the tire. :rolleyes:
