China-tube. Garbage. nearly 100% failure rate at one poiint or another. Many replace them empirically as a matter of course. Front is a 90/90-21, the rear is a 110/80-18 usually.

Hi bbbdan777
The tire size is marked on every tire made, on the side of the tire. You need a tube to fit your tire. Example: from FastDoc, 90/90-21 or 100/90-21, etc.

No, Autozone is for automobile parts.

You need a store that sells motorcycle parts.

Any motorcycle shop should have the correct tubes.

I'm glad you got your inner tube ordered, Dan. It's good to have a spare inner tube on hand for both wheels. I always inspect the inner tubes every time I change my tires, and I replace the inner tubes if they show any signs of damage.

In case you hadn't considered it, sometimes the valve stem core can be loose. Have you tried to tighten it and see if it holds air?
