Your Motorcycle Tyre Goes Flat at Work. What Now?

A flat tyre can turn a normal workday into a logistical headache. Here’s what to do next and how mobile motorcycle tyre fitting can help.

2 min read

You rode to work as usual. Then, sometime between your morning coffee and the end of your shift, you spot it: your motorcycle’s rear tyre looks flat. Your bike is still in the car park, you need to get home, and finding a way to take it to a workshop is the last thing you planned for today.

It’s a frustrating situation, but the next step can be simple: leave the bike parked and work out what the tyre needs before trying to ride away.

First, don’t ride on a flat tyre

A puncture can look small from the outside, but the damage may extend further. Riding with very low pressure can also damage the tyre internally. If you notice a flat or rapidly losing tyre at work, keep the motorcycle parked and arrange a professional assessment. Whether it can be repaired depends on the tyre and the damage; it cannot be decided reliably from a photo alone.

Send us the details that help us help you

When you contact BikeTyres2Go, share your motorcycle’s make, model and year, your location, and whether the front or rear tyre is affected. A photo of the tyre size printed on the sidewall and a clear photo of any visible damage are helpful too. Tell us if the bike is in a basement or a restricted car park so we can discuss access before attending.

You don’t have to know the perfect tyre for your motorcycle before getting in touch. We can talk through the fitment and suitable options with you.

We bring the tyre service to your bike

BikeTyres2Go is a mobile motorcycle tyre service. Instead of organising a trailer or spending time moving a bike with a flat tyre, you can arrange for us to come to its location. We help riders across Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan, the Gold Coast and the Moreton Bay area, with the exact visit subject to availability and location.

The same idea works when your tyre is worn but your bike is still rideable: book a fitting where the motorcycle already is, such as home or work, and make tyre maintenance fit around your day.

A flat tyre has interrupted your day. Getting it sorted doesn’t have to take over the rest of it. Contact BikeTyres2Go with your bike details and location, and we’ll discuss the next step.
