At the end of September I'm taking my new Triumph Thruxton R on a mini tour of Spain with a couple of friends - Bilbao, Pamplona, Jaca, Lourdes, Androrra, Zaragoza etc The Thruxton looks great - but is not so great if you get a puncture as it is not tubeless - as I recently found it. It was repaired quickly and cheaply by Steve at Superbike tyres who turned up in his van - highly recommended BTW (https://www.yell.com/biz/superbike-tyres-carshalton-901100005/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) I did ask him whether it was worth learning to repair the type myself ready for Spain and he said that, without a paddocak stand, it's almost impossible - and even with a stand, with basic tools it's still bloody difficult. Obviously I will make sure I have the usual European breakdown cover etc - but in the event of a puncture I want to avoid having to be transported to a workshop somewhere. Ideally I'd have the phone numbers of a couple of Steve equivalents in Spain who are motorcycle-specific and can turn up and repair the puncture on the spot (I'll be taking inner tubes in case they don't have the right ones) Do such people exist in Spain - and is anyone aware of any in the areas we're going? Any advice greatly appreciated Thanks Liam
