Motorcycle Front Tire Dry rot, Pay for towtruck or can I make it to the shop?

Dry rot happened long before you noticed and you rode then with no worries, ride it there.

Changing tires is easy , except for tubes, but balancing is not, have it done by ppl who know how with the right equipment.

You can't fix dry rot. Your tires need to be replaced as soon as possible. Dry rot means the rubber has begun to deteriorate, no matter how good the tread looks. Not only do you risk a blow-out, but old tires have less traction due to the hardening of the rubber. Your life is worth more than the price of a couple tires.

Since you needed to ask, I'll assume popping a wheelie all the way to the shop is out of the question !?! 8=D

2 miles?, should be fine, but take it easy and if it does go flat steer straight and NO BRAKING on the front and put as much weight on the rear as possible.

If you are really afraid to ride it, and can't take the front wheel off your self, you just about don't have a choice.

If it's holding air it will probably make the two miles. In fact, you didn't tell us what kind of bike so I don't know if it's a tube or tubeless tire. Either way, I'd guess it will make the two miles.

I would take it easy go slow and ride it to the shop for only 2 miles it would be a pain to load it up and then unload it 5 minutes later.

I would ride it if the tire holds air.

If you are unable or unsure how to remove the front wheel or do not have the facilities, then push the bike – it is only 2 miles – it should take less than an hour.

Remove the front wheel and take it, the axle and the tire to the shop.

Ride, cowboy, ride ! If you don't pop it leaving your driveway, just avoid potholes. Even if you do pop it, you should be able to get there.
