SPOKES VS MAGS
#15
Laced wheels (spokes) are visually appealing and nostalgic, but more work to clean and can be a pain to keep true to avoid high speed oscillation. I had that issue with my 1976 CB750F.

Alloy wheels allow tubeless tires, which are much easier for puncture repair.

If my Seal N Air does not work, then next step is a plug kit and a compact foot pump (fits under the seat, above the battery, with the Seal N Air).

If no plug kit, then maybe a sheet metal screw would get me home.
