bead leak on front tire

[davenowherejones]

my front tire is leaking at the rim.

should I hit the rim gently with a rubber mallet to bend it enough to stop the leak?

should I throw to a 50% used Shinko tire away?

How about some Ride-on tire sealant?

Chuck the Forza in the dump?

my body is no good. the doctor says I can't drive or ride until I fix my body. I had a diabetic stroke, blood clot in my leg & brain

Anyone want to buy a 2014 Honda Forza 300 with 100,000 miles plus on it? Anyone want a 63 year old broken male, not housebroken?

Bead leaks are just usually a bit of corrosion on the alloy wheel rim edge. If you remove the wheel and remove the tyre, you will see alloy corrosion which can be sanded down and removed. I had to do it on a Honda Silver wing scooter rear wheel. Not an expensive repair, just inconvenient.

I have done rim sanding in the past an it worked . I am still suffering from my stroke. I find it very difficult to do any work on the Forza. I am currently on a Drivers license suspension. I am not allowed to drive my truck. I feel awful., In a lot of pain from a blood clot in my leg.
