I got a tentative price for a pair......£2200. 
Not 100% sure, but I don't think the oe rims are suitable to take tubeless tyres, so the Outex isn't an option.

There are options to make most spoked trims tubeless. Any I've seen are cumbersome and expensive. Some are not suitable for road use. Some are not passed by construction and use regulations for use on the road and would invalidate your insurance. JJH
If BMW, Moto Guzzi and Yamaha can offer spoked tubeless tyres/wheels I can't understand why Honda don't give an option. Having tubed tyres probably deters quite a few potential buyers.

They're not cheap are they! Also, and I accept it's subjective, but is it just me that reckons they look pretty horrible? I sort of class them along with red anodised fasteners on Bandits kinda thing........
And KTM, don't forget KTM

Why didn't Honda offer tubeless rims as an option? - there would then have been no discussion - perhaps it will be a future option? Perhaps the next update will also have better pillion provision, a 19" front wheel option and more grunt 
oh and maybe shaft drive

Then it would be as useless off road as the wc gs.
Honda make a cross tourer if you want that in a bike.
A Honda Crossdresser is the last thing I want, duller than a dull thing from the planet dull
I don't know where you get the idea that the GS is useless off road from. There are countless Youtube videos of the GS doing some amazing stuff but then you might have an anti GS agenda just like Mr Arsey just because you now own a Honda.

The Crossdresser, as nicknamed by the press, is the earlier Crossrunner 800. The only thing that's dull about my CT is the way that it consistently " out grunts" my mate on his 12GSA. It used to be great fun but TBH it's so easy, especially shifting manually with the seamless shift, that doing him over is getting a bit boring now.
What I will never tire of is the feel and sound of that V4 engine though the Leo Vince and also the crackle on the overrun as you shift down the box using the auto blipper, safe in the knowledge that the slipper clutch will sort out any over enthusiastic downshifts.
Oh BTW ..... It's got tubeless tyres too
