Thanks Bob - she lives in the garage so won't be iced
Carb icing happens when your riding it. Damp air going through the carbs causes ice to build up inside the carbs. The FZS has water heating to stop this happening but it sometimes gets blocked.
Once it's in your tyre it can't be repaired after that, small leaks are okay and will just seal themselves but a tyre fitter will not even consider plugging a tyre with that gear in, which is fair enough.
That's why I suggested using it on tyres over half worn.
if the tyre is over half worn, or newer if you like, get a can of the tyre sealant stuff from Halfrauds and stick that in. Problem should go away then.
