Thanks for being so helpful.

Thanks, digbeth. I'll have a look.

It is far less likely with tubeless rims. It has never happened to me and I have done over 250,000 miles.

I have. Only going 40 mph on a KTM 950 Adventure, but the tyre went down fast, and my back wheel went from side to side. Easily controlled but I wouldn't have liked to have been doing 80 mph.

117,000 is a very specific guess. I'm sure it could be done, though. I wouldn't mind a set of high quality mag wheels on it.

You are far more likely to have a puncture with tubed tyres. At speed, you have a real problem.

I certainly wouldn't be importing them.

Thanks. It is the bottom of these designs I'd be interested in. My old BMW R1100GS had them. Now, so many motorcycles do, even low-capacity, cheap Chinese bikes.

I have recently bought an immaculate 2020 Yamaha SCR950 with 4,200 km on it, a bike I have wanted since they came out. The one thing I don't like about it are the spoke wheels which take tubed tyres. I want to run on tubeless. It must be possible to get cross-spoke wheels made in Thailand. Has anyone any ideas?

I think I was mixing the VanVan up with the SR400, which I believe is finally being discontinued. But I might have got that wrong, too.

Thanks, both of you.

Are these bikes still beeing sold new in Thailand? I've always fancied one.

Old thread, but it seems there are places around the Bangkok area that sell Can-Am three-wheelers. I run a Spyder F3-S, a 1330cc triple, in Europe. It is my favourite 'bike' ever, and I've done over 250,000 miles on two-wheelers. For the bulk of the year I live in Thailand and am considering a Can-Am Ryker Rally, if I can find one.

I wonder how many years they'll get for this. Assuming they are guilty, of course.
