Motorcycle Tyre Repair in Parramatta

Motorcycle tyre repair services include puncture repairs, flat tyre repairs, and tyre replacement.

If you have a punctured or worn-out tyre, it’s time to book a tyre repair service. Motorcycle tyre repair methods depend on the type of damage on the tyres.

Puncture repair

The location and size of a puncture determine if it’s safe to repair a tyre. If a puncture is a quarter-inch or less, a specialist can repair your tyre. Also, the puncture should be in the tread area. It’s possible to repair a rear tyre but not advisable to fix a front tyre.

Puncture repair requires removing debris and patching the hole from the inside. You should repair tyre punctures ASAP. Otherwise, your tyre could endure further damage.  

Flat tyre repair

Aside from sharp objects, tyre air can also escape through a faulty valve stem or wheel. Tyre or tube replacement is the best solution to fix a flat tyre. In the case of vandalism when someone lets the air out of your tyres, you can simply reflate the tyre.

Tyre replacement

You can repair a tyre if the punctures are not too big and are at least 16 inches apart. Moreover, the punctures should not be in the sidewall or on the edge of the tread. Tyres with major damage such as tread separation or long cuts are not repairable.

If your tyre is beyond repair or worn out, it’s time to replace it. Motoring experts recommend a tyre replacement once your tread depth gets to 2-3 mm.
