Re: FPS - Tubeless

Thanks Craig,

FPS - Tubeless

Can I run tubeless tyres on FPS rims?

I am certain the info is already on the forum, but I have had no luck finding it.

I'll have a go on the weekend. I know from brief inspection that the relay in the headlight has been disconnected, so I assume there is anotherone under the tank. I am currently away from home with work, so will let you know how I go on the weekend.
Cheers,
John

860 vs 900 pots

Can anyone tell me if it is true that the standard 860 barrel can be bored to take the 900 pistons.
