I got myself a rep n air kit, http://www.biketrade.co.uk/motorcycle-ac...r_kit.html
after getting a puncture in a brand new rear tyre (less than 300 miles).
i think i got lucky by the fact it was caused by a screw i picked up aprox 1/2 mile from home on a friday and I didnt even realise till i went to clean the bike on saturday that it was completley flat.
the screw was still in the tyre and dead center, so i pumped it up checked pressure waited 10mins and re checked pressure then rode it 1/2 mile to local garage who was happy to plug it for me.
being caught out or stranded by a bloody puncture would be a nightmare :'( , so atleast now i hopefully have the means to repair it (although i dont know anyone thats ever actually used one before)
