LF200GY-5 Tires and tubes? Best place to buy online?
I've been looking around for tires and tubes online for a LF200GY-5. It's not to hard to find the tires but I can't seem to locate the tubes. I was hoping to order everything from one dealer. Also I wanted to check and make sure I'm using the right numbers for the tires (maybe there is another number I can use?) Also is it possible to use tube-less tires on these bikes?
Front: 2.75-21 Rear: 4.10-18 I'm still new to the dual sport scene and the bike shops close to me are tailored to sports bikes and cruisers (not to mention they don't like to help chinese riders... so I'll take my bussiness online for now). Any help is appreciated. |

Hi Jollysig
I've used both J.C. Whitney(jcwhitney.com) and Dennis Kirk (denniskirk.com) with good results You can't use tubeless tires with the spoke rims on most china bikes,the air would leak out through the spoke holes Most bikes with tubeless tires also have one piece cast wheels hope this helps you Joe V |

I just priced a set last week and the best price for a good quality tire was a set of CHENG-SHIN Enduro tires from BIKEBANDIT.COM the total was $48.00 for the front and rear tire plus shipping!! That's what I came up with.

I have ordered chains from www.motorcyclesuperstore.com and I also ordered a JT sprocket and a set of tubes from them that should arrive tomorrow. Shipping is reasonable, but they can be a bit slow. I have also ordered from bikebandit.com too.
