If one of my motorrads were to receive a flat tire, the only way I would have it plugged would be to ride it slowly to the nearest bike shop/BMW dealer for a new tire.
Tires get checked once a week for air and before any rides planned longer than 20 miles. Which for a BMW, we start riding when Hardley stops so every ride is 20 miles - or 800 miles.
A car, I might but probably not on a front tire and especially not on a front wheel drive tire. With that said, I have driven lots of miles on plugged tires when money was an issue but would never on a motorrad.
