I've just about decided to put a Michelin 205/70/15 HydroEdge on my VTX 1300s. I would really prefer not to try sealing the spoke rims (and definitely don't want to change them out). I have a couple of questions.

  1. Do I simply reuse the existing tube, buy a new one just like it, or replace with something else (and if "something else", what?)
  2. Does anyone know of a shop in the DFW, TX area that will mount this for me?

Back in the day when cars had tubes I used to change to a new tube with a new tire, But that was just me.
You should use a motorcycle tube. Wether its the same one or a new one its up to you. I don't know of a shop up there, but there are a bunch of people from that area here, one should jump in.
