A Honda Crossdresser is the last thing I want, duller than a dull thing from the planet dull

Another machine you've no doubt not ridden......

What's surprising is there was no big thread started on why BMW didn't fit tubeless tyres to the like of the F800GS, or the XC versions of the Tiger 800 or the KTM 950/990 having tubed tyres. All of a sudden, it's a problem, a deal breaker.

I posted on this a few times. Only - in my opinion. JJH

Always a deal breaker for me on a road bike - test riding one makes no difference to the downsides of tubed on the road.

Davy there is a good reason for that...

The GS800 and Triumph are not as desirable to a 1200 owner as the AT is, so they are discounted for many reasons.

If you use a bike for work and have had punctures having tubes is off putting, I don't think it would be a deal breaker for me but I think I would consider one of those aftermarket tubeless systems
