I just bought some Mefo Explorers, marked 'tube-type' for my GSPD. I don't wanna run tubes, hate the things. Leak in a tube is a major PITA, all day misery, puncture in a tubeless is a 15-minute non-event. Any issues running Mefo tires tubeless on a GSPD?
Anyone have any tips on how to get the 90/90 21 front tire to get the bead rubber to touch the metal rim all around at the same time so as to build up air pressure to seat the bead. Always been a real PITA before, hadda take it downtown to the moto guys, and they needed three guys and six hands to press the tire there and there to get it to hold air and seat.
Someone told me to spray some ether starting fluid inside the tire and touch it off with a long nose BBQ lighter; the sudden explosion/expansion of air would partially seat the bead and air pressure would do the rest. Whacha thing? Think I'll die trying?
