As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

Mixing tube and tubeless tires

I'm looking down the road for better tires on my gs750T . I'm thinking the
BT45 battleax bridgestone but in the H rated series the 120/80/17 rear is tubeless and the front 100/90/19 is tube , can you mix ? Does the front wheel accept a tube ? The wheels are marked tubeless.
 
If they're both marked tubeless I see no reason in putting a tube in them. I'm running a 130 on the rear and I believe OEM calls for a 120 tire. I've been riding regularly without a tube and haven't had any probs, yet.

I rode a few battle axes in my drinkin days but never on my GS.It is probly ok with tubes under 90mph with good balancing.
Is this the end or just one wheel?

The wheels (aluminum) are tubless, the front TIRE is tube type. And seeing it H rated 130 that alot more than 90 mph.
