As above, went to my bike this morning and the rear is flat as a pancake, come home to investigate and find this in it! abut 4mm long and was stopping the flood of air gushing out.

a couple of years ago i saw a guy stopped with his bike in reading and pulled over to do my good Samaritan bit.
the guy goes 'here look at this!' and when i looked it was a bloody screwdriver handle deep in the rear tyre!  ____________________ CBR954RR - Daily toy

Went with a proper bang too, and could hear it pissing air even with my lid on in traffic. Was just less than a mile from home so just rode it back slowly. Had to get the AA out to plug the tyre so I could ride it to a tyre place. Even after he put in the biggest plug he had it was still pissing air like a good 'un, so he followed me to the garage to make sure I got there before it went flat.
Can't remember exactly how much it cost me for a D209, but it was farkin pricey. Never used that tyre fitters again!
The D207's that were fitted when I got the bike were really old and shit, so wasn't a bad thing to be rid of them tbh. ____________________

I seem to have a habit of getting punctures in newly fitted rear tyres...
I recently managed to pick up half a Stanley knife blade in a 3 week old Dunlop Qualifier
and I previously picked up a 3-4 inch phillips / cross head screw in a Bridgestone rear tyre that had less than 500 miles on it
just lucky I guess  ____________________ 1st bike (Sept'06 - May'10) : 1991 GPZ500S / Current bike (since Nov 2009) : 2003 Suzuki Bandit 600N
