Nitrogen is a pain if tire is punctured.
Yup, I've had one flat so far, just as I was leaving Pune for Bombay. Had just passed Aundh. Turned around and drove back slowly, fortunately it wasn't fully flat, but was leaking air. Fixed it and came back!

I'd have been in a spot of trouble if it happened on the highway!

As for Nitrogen, it's a scam. My tyres are filled with air. My tyres never get hot enough to make having Nitrogen a requirement (and this is at some pretty crazy speeds, so...)
