Looks like there could be as many non-Fazer owners as there are Fazer owners, wonder if we'll all be allowed to ride together?  ;)

I found a nail in my tyre a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty unbelievable as it was only a couple of days after my other half had found one in a car tyre, which very nearly prevented us from making it from Weston-Super-Mare to London for a Spurs game with our nephews (their birthday treat). Before anybody suggests a falling out with our neighbours, my bike is always garaged, so no opportunity for vandalism of both vehicles.
 
My tyre only had about 1000 miles on it, so I wasn't a happy camper. Of course the difference between the car and the bike was that the repair cost £20 for the car (plus a £5 tip for getting it done quickly so that we wouldn't miss the game). Nobody reputable round my way will repair a high speed rated bike tyre, so it was £130 for a new one fitted, balanced, etc.

Dunno about you Janet, but if I have to pay say £65 for a car tyre then I'm pissed off. If I have to pay £130 for a bike tyre I'm thinking no big deal, it's my toy, LOL.

Bert, the bike was in for its MOT yesterday but their modem broke so they couldn't do it. They have promised to do it today so it all depends on the garage. The old MOT runs out today.

Hi from a newcomer to the FOC.
You shouldn't have problems getting a tyre repaired unless the puncture is close to, or in the sidewall. You can have up to two PERMANENT tyre plugs done before having to throw a tyre. AA-type roadside repairs are only temporary however, and as they tend to open up the puncture too much to fit their plugs, then you DO have to bin the tyre afterwards. No one will want to repair a tyre that is close to, or beyond legal tread-depth limit, and certainly would not be advisable to do anyway.
