I feel better knowing its happened before. I think I rode the ST with a flattish tyre too. I went on a mens shed ride and the front tyre felt funny on the way to the shed but was then ok till I was nearly home. By the time I put a tyre gauge on it it was flat. I am amazed that heavy bikes can cope with such low pressures. Very firm rubber I guess

When I bought my ST from a dealer in Cairns, I found it handled like rubbish, and I also had a "What have I done!" moment, and assumed that's what a heavy bike was like to ride. However, once I put some air in the tyres, the difference was remarkable. Clearly Cairns Honda did a pretty slack pre delivery check on my new bike.
I arrive Friday night and leave Sunday morning. My GL1800 is in Victor Harbor at a friends where I left it the other week after a 4,500km ride Perth/Victor Harbor/Hay/Victor Harbor.
