Your bike tells you all you need to know! Harley used 'sealed' tubeless spoke wheels for a while, but seem to have dropped them. Simply replacing the tyre was a test for any fitter and not always successful. BMW have solved the challenge by fitting the spokes outside the rim of the tyre, but that is not widely popular.

It will be interesting to see if anyone has had success sealing a spoked wheel.
