Hmmm, thanks for all the advice. It seems my options are:
1) Spoked wheels with a tube. However, if the wheel rim has a lip then breaking the bead to mend a puncture could be awkward.
2) Cast wheels with tubeless tyres. Easier to fix punctures but a problem if I damage a wheel!
Can anyone offer advice on the Tiger 955i for a long trip through hot countries using some sealed and some dirt tracks?
I suppose I should also go back and look at alternative bikes for 2 up touring, spending about 4k?
