 Slow Leak Tire
Hello All,
So... I picked up my first bike from a dealer on Saturday (took the MSF course 2 months ago)...rode it about 50 miles home and garaged it while getting insurance and plates. Noticed Monday night that the rear tire was dead flat. I pumped it up to the correct PSI and listened for escaping air..nothing. Checked it about 6 hours later and it had lost about 7 PSI...this morning (Tuesday) another 9 PSI. I didn't spray the tire with soapy water yet looking for an air leak.. I plan to do this today. I did inspect for a nail or puncture but found nothing.
If I have no puncture, should I take this back to the dealer (not sure I trust the guy) or should I take it local? Where I do have some trust. It's a 2005 C50 LTD so spoked tires and tubes.
I was thinking of trying some sealant in the tube first to see if that stops the leak too.
Any advice to this noob would be greatly appreciated.
