do you photograph all your bikes in front of that wall
How much range do you want ? The AT will do over 200 miles plus reserve !! I've not had a puncture in 8 years on my 950 Super Enduro,so if that's all that's bothering you then you should get one !!!
Tubes are an issue if you use your bike every day for work...
I wear a BMW coverall one piece over my work gear, the other morning going to work in get a flat. No problem with tubeless tyres, I slip on a pair of workshop gloves, get out the stop and go and 15 mins later I'm packed up and back on my way and all done while parked tight against the hedge of a single track lane.
You could not do that with tubes.
So I get where you are coming from if the bike is for fun and trips but trust me when you are working or more importantly on your way home on a wet cold night not being tubeless is an issue
Tubed tyres are not a problem.
Chuck one of these under the seat/in the top box. On the rare occasions I have had a puncture with tubed tyres they have always worked so far

That's good to know.

You have a point there, is that stuff better than other brands.
I do carry the slime version on the GSA as a last resort option as I have TPS.
With tubes this could be even quicker than a stop an go on tubeless.
I use to carry a can strapped to the frame of my 1150, it was there unused for a long time and eventually the frame wore a hole in the can - what a fucking mess all

Much of a muchness I think - just make sure it says it is suitable for tubed tyres.
I also had a can under the seat of a CB750 Honda for years before it also wore through the can - yes it gets very messy
Looks like Termignoni have finished the system for the AT as they have just updated their Facebook page with this pic :

I had a go on the AT today, dct version and loved it, I found it so easy to ride once jumped aboard and off I went and not once did I look for the clutch lever, the fuelling was absolutely perfect and the way it changed down to allow engine braking was impressive. Only issue in the full auto sport mode was down shifting when gassing, it took some time and felt laggy now I'm aware using the paddles would overcome this issue also it seemed to change down into first to quickly !! the stock can was quite loud and made a lovely deep sound. Impressive Honda build quality as normal and they will sell loads, my vote would be DCT in White .

Remus have just released four end pipes too (look like the hexcone jobbies).
Ha ha ...
It would have to be very, very good (two up with luggage as well ..) to tempt me.
But I'm not averse to change .. ever. My bike is my hobby and I don't mind pcp'ing a couple of hundred quid a month on it. So if it was Aaamaazing and the maths added up I'd have no problem making a change.
