Good report TooEasy, Thanks! I'm looking at tires for the future when I need a rear. I may have to change the wheels. My RK came with the upgraded wire wheels. He offered to swap with me, but didn't have anything that would fit. I've got ABS as well. Do you know of a tire I can run with a tube? Thanks again for keeping us informed. I'd like to know how many miles you will be able to get out of your CT. Thanks also for your service to our great Country...
I also paid for the spoked wheels, and I was about to seal them so I could run tubeless Wide White Walls, when I found out about the car tires. Now, I still think that there is nothing that looks as good as a clean bike with clean WWW's, but still I am not going back to a MC tire. I was fortunate to find a set of 2010 SG wheels on ebay, ABS, for a good price.
About running the tube, I have no idea. But Dunlop customer support might know? lol. or go to the Dark Side forum

I am going back as soon as the weather cools down a little. DFW is north of me, but these little backroads sometimes had me going south, sometimes east, until eventually I ended up in Seagoville, then Dallas.
Some great backroads there.
I'll let you know next time, so we can meet and you can try my bike.

Be warned. Riding at such low pressure is like a whole new suspension, plush and composed. You might end up liking it,
