    I like that Dunlops are such a sturdy tire, you can actually still ride slowly when it's flat. I saw a nail sticking out of the back tire of my Dyna once, and made the mistake of pulling it out. This was before I had the tire repair kit, so I had no choice but to try to make it home.

    I had about 20 miles to go, so I proceeded down the shoulder of the highway at about 30 mph, thinking I would stop if the tire started to shred. It felt a little squirly, but darn if it didn't hold up OK to get me all the way home. I was impressed. I probably should stick with using them just for that reason.
