BIG probs getting new tire to seat right on the rim!

Where did you order tubes from? I ordered some from motorcycle super store and they did the same thing to me.

Let me amend what I said earlier about pressure. You don't want to inflate so high that the bead won't stay in the rim. If you blow up a new tire, it would probably be the tire bead popping out of the rim.

BTW, you might want to check your local Hondasan if close enough to do business. Sometimes they end up cheaper by the time you add shipping on eBay tires. My last Hondasan purchase was $16 for tire, $8 for tube, plus tax, $27 out the door, and I've built a relationship with a human being instead of a computer. That's worth a little bit.

I ordered my tubes from http://www.cyclepartsnation.com. Tires from Motorcycle super store. I could'nt find the right size tubes where i bought the tires from so i ordered where i thought i'd get the correct size lol. If i would of known i could get away with 2.5-2.75 i could of ordered them from Motorcycle super store. Though they were cheaper where i got them by a couple of bucks.. though i had to pay tax as its in my state but a few hours drive away from me.

I did call a local honda dealer thats about a half hour drive.. they only had 1 tube in stock and i needed 4!
