Rode on nothing but tubes from 1965 to 1977 when I got my first bike with mag wheels. And several bikes after that came with tubed wheels. My 2003 Triumph T-100 had tubes. Road it all over the country. My brother's 2016 T 1-120 also has tubes. We have been on 7 out of state trips together. Having tubes would not have stopped me from buying an CB 1100 EX if I wanted one. Would not stop me from buying a Transalp if I wanted one. There are several readily available relatively inexpensive work arounds if you don't want to run tubes. Ask several guys on this forum with EX's who have chosen to go tubeless.
