i dont know about my fellow 400 riders, but whenever i use my 18" tires, i always break the bead on 'em and have to go limping home on a flat...do u guys know anything i can do to fix this, or does my bike just have too much torque for those little tires? i also tried bumping my air pressure up a little bit too, but it still does it...ive even cleaned the bead when ive done it so it would seat properly..any advice would be helpful..thanx in advance

 

Bead lock wheels, Poor man's lockers, or more air pressure...
