Hey guys,

I used my Suzuki Marauder 125 to get to a job interview yesterday, and on the way back it felt like the back-wheel was wobbling loose. I pulled over to see what was wrong, to find that I had to tilt the bike to the right to get the side-stand out it was that low thanks to the flat-as-pancake backtire I discovered.

Had to leave it on some old lady's drive about a mile away from home before coming back a few hours later to rev it home at 2mph on the pavement :'(

It's propped against my garage wall now with no back wheel, Wacky's gone to see what can be done about it.

Just thought I'd let you know wink

EDIT: Oh, also we can't see anything that caused the puncture in the tire.
