Nothing that wouldn't involve serious adaptations. As far as i know the Usa-version of the XJ650 had tubeless tyres. Perhaps the XV 920 or other derivates of the TR1 that where sold in Usa or Canada have them also? Quote: What's so bad about tubes ? Possibly the same that is so bad about the original ignition coils... If Yamaha had fitted the TR1 with tubeless tyres and sparkplug-connector-ignitioncoils, there would surely be someone who replaced them with tube-tyres and common ignitioncoils. Quote: At least you can fix them, when you have a flat unlike tubeless tyres... Exactly. Bye, Georg
