No, it wasn't flat until the plug fell out. If I hadn't seen it happening I wouldn't have believed it myself.
It wasn't a recent plug (used for a few 100 miles or more) and hadn't had any problems. My only thoughts on it were perhaps the lubrication they put on the plugs to help fit them made it easier to slide out and it was a hot day, with the plug in direct sunlight. Either way, it was an eye opener and changed my view on them.
I fitted a new plug and rode 100 miles home without issue, but bought all the kit for a patch repair that day.
