New Tires - Shinko 705's
Hello all, I recently got my shinkos. Last night I was trying to mount the tires and pinched/pierced my front tube trying to get the tire properly mounted. My question is, what tube do you guys use for the hawk front/rear wheel? I noticed that the front shinko tire has written on it: tubeless tire, any thoughts on that? I did some browsing on google and other forums said they run tubes in them with no issues.
What's your thoughts on this? Also, I ordered some spokes from my rear rim, I took measurements of the one of the stock spokes and they matched up pretty close to what I bought. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221207778919...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I measured the stock spokes thickness, they seem to be the exact same. I know aliexpress has some as well but I've never used that site so I was hesitant. I'll let you guys know how those I ordered on eBay go. The guy on ebay's feedback seemed legit so, we'll see.
I assume you're talking about these: https://www.amazon.com/Michelin-Ultr...otorcycle+tube

New Shoes!
Not to side track, but...what do you think of the tires? What size did you go with? AND...like everyone always says, "Show us some pictures!"
