So 5 days later it's still holding air. I'm thinking there is no puncture. A friend of mine thinks I'm nuts to continue riding on it, but I fail to see the problem in riding it until a can afford a new front tire.
That brings me to question. Is there any harm in putting a bridgestone BT54 up front and continuing to run the oringal dunlop on the back? After much reading on the forum, I know that both of these tires have come on the bike from the factory. I also gathered that they are practically the same tire. I can get the bridgestone for about $100 while the dunlop is more difficult to find and more expensive.
