I'm glad you guys are making amusement out of this. $75 to have a new tire and get it mounted yeah that's really fucking funny. We have to laugh off misfortune, shit happens, life is short, loves lost, death and taxes, -otherwise life would be too painful to exist.

I'm glad you guys are making amusement out of this. $75 to have a new tire and get it mounted yeah that's really fucking funny. I crashed into a deer, broke a bunch of stuff, multiple times more than $75 in damage to the scoot, medical bills that I wish were $75, prob a year before I may be sorta right again. Over the course of a month tanuki sent me an inflatable deer, a deer hunting sticker and deer whistles. I laughed every time. That said, people have their own senses of humor and there are some things that aren't cool to crack a joke about. Some people are easily offended, some people can laugh at anything. I don't think anyone here really thought it was funny that your tire failed or was stabbed or whatever the case may be and I don't think anyone here really wanted to see it cost you money or inconvenience. IMO there's a big difference in comments made with malice and those thought to be in good fun. Sorry about your tire. If its' not funny to the OP, then we should knock it off. If he really wanted to know what happened to the tire, at least a couple of local tire shops should probably be asked to assess the damage.

I agree. Intent matters. To me, no one here showed any malicious intent and we were trying to make light of the situation the same way I or most of us probably would given the same circumstance. This forum is a place where a lot of men and women “talk shop” about scooters and generally have a pretty light hearted attitude. There is an assumed level of fuckery that comes along with that, IMO. That’s part of why I’m here.
I’m not going to apologize if any of my comments upset you, but I will tell you that was not my intention and I’ll stop posting anything regarding your situation. I hope you are able to resolve the situation to your satisfaction.

Definitely NOT stabbed. Btw, you how sharp a knife must be and how much force you need, to stab a pumped tire? Plus it also would look different. I believe it's been stabbed. It takes a lot of force to stab thru the tread but it takes hardly any force to stab the sidewall. It really makes me mad that people can't leave other peoples stuff alone!
