flat tire

Post by bmillner »

I got a Buddy 50 this past summer, and except for one issue (it kept dying...turns out the catalytic converter was clogged with the stuff they put in the engine for transport to fight the salt water) I have just loved it. But, I wonder...what happens when you get a flat tire? Is your only alternative to call the tow truck? Is it a good idea to carry a can of "fix a flat" with you, so you can inflate the tire, at least enough to get it to the store. What do you recommend? Thanks.

If you're the original owner, you can call Genuine's Roadside Assistance number for free transport to the nearest dealer during the first two years.

Depends if your tires are tubeless or not. Carry the can if you have tubeless, call the tow truck if you have tube tires.
