Be nice to go tubeless with spokes.

It's not hard to take a conventional spoke wheel, seal it, and go tubeless. There are pre-made kits for it, Outex for example, or you can DIY it.

I see that. Did you search using "OUTEX" as your keyword? I just tried again using a space, "OUT EX" because the link you posted showed a star in between. Still came up as underwater camera housing. Thanks for the link

I guess you need "more" guidance in your search....

All I used is "outex spoke wheel kit".

Some of us were recently discussing that on this thread: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...ear-wheel.html

The problem I've had is no one will mount the tire with no tube in it for liability reasons.

Sent a PM to @DK Custom Products & waiting for reply, but wanted to ask others with Heritage Softail if they have ideas on how to mount the Oil Filter Relocation Kit on my 2020 M8 with HD Mustache Engine Guard?? I tried the recommended high-mount, moved the clutch line over as far as possible, took off bolts/covers and still can't get it to work. Anyone w/ this same issue have ideas...other than removing the Engine Guard...I'm all ears.

Here's @DK Custom kit I have, for reference: https://www.dkcustomproducts.com/cnc...nc-ofr-uni.htm

Hoping I can use this vs. reselling...>.<

Talk to some of the dirt bike shops. They are often more used to different fillers and such with tires, and might me more accepting of a sealed rim and no tubes.

It's also a justification to buy a tire changing machine of your own. They do pay for themselves with some tire changes. Especially with how expensive the job has become.

I have personally seen the Rabaconda DIY changer in action and
I can say that I was fairly impressed with how easy it was to use...

For example only;
