I understand tire sizing as it’s similar to a car, but my CB1100 is a 2017EX mode with spoke wheels. According to the Rear tire it requires tubes the front tire states tubeless, but I’d imagine has a tube in it?
They’re currently the original tires I believe the tires are stamped 2012. They’re dunlops, and have just enough tread for maybe a month left I’m gonna purchase some Bridgestone BT54s I found which are tubeless and a good price.
My local shop told me just buy whatever tire I want they put tubes in them, but do I need to even bother changing tubes? I was thinking about since the tubes are at least 5-6 years old.
Also in case the shop pops one on accident as my motorcycle is my only means of transportation.
Currently have dunlops

Oh, and how do you buy the tubes? The diameter must obviously fit inside the tire so just any tube that’s 18inches?
