Calm down, that's what they call a valve stem. It's where you put the air in. I made the same mistake. 
 That sucks man. You barley got a taste.

Get your hands on one of these mushroom patches and ride on.
Here is what a it looks like as a cross section.
And if you don't want your tire I'll take it off your hands!

Be glad you didn't find it at 100 mph after the tire came apart.

Yeah, the fuck if I'm going to trust a patch on a bike like this.

Why not? I patched the rear tire on my Cbr F4I with one of these after I picked up a piece of chain link fence in it after 200 miles. Tire lasted another 3000 miles.
The patch seals from the inside out.
How big is the bolt?

I'm sure it would be awesome going 110+ and instantly loosing all tire pressure when that blows out.
