My front Mitas E07 tire has a slow leak somewhere. The tire was installed new in June - I estimate 40% tread life remains. If you properly inflate the tire to ~ 30 psi, it takes maybe 7 days to deflate to a point where the rim is sitting on the garage floor. I inflated to 40 psi and tried to find the leak with soapy water but no luck while the tire was on the bike. It's on my "To Do" list to remove the front tire/rim and perform a more thourough inspection when I find the time. I have to take a closer look at the valve stem also to see if it is the culprit.
What is everyone's take on repairs to motorcycle tires? I would have no issue with an internal repair of such a small leak if I could find somebody to perform the repair. I don't know if I would trust myself to perform...
