For those watching a video of mine for the first time, I have a custom Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 that runs on 17 inch custom aluminium rims that are wider than stock.
And I have been wanting to convert them to tubeless from a very long time.
The safest, tried and tested option that I wanted to go for was an Outex kit. Outex does make a kit for the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, however, that kit was useless for me.
Since Outex kits are pre-cut according to the motorcycle's rim's width, and my rims are wider, I could not use the standard kit.
Outex also does not do custom kits.
So, if I were to still insist on Outex, I would have had to buy two separate kits from two different motorcycles to match my 3.5 inch front rim and 4.25 inch rear rims.
Now, an Outex kit in itself is Rs 13,500. And buying two kits to mix and match would have meant Rs 27,000 for just the kit and Rs 2,500 for installation.
That is steep. I am sure you would agree with that.
And so, I was stuck running tubes inside my custom rims.
Until, Melvin from Way2Speed decided to help me out.
Way2Speed has come up with their own way to convert the rims to tubeless and it essentially entails you applying a solution on the rims and letting it dry out, sealing the gaps between the spokes and the rims.
The video explains it better than my words here.
The kit costs Rs 5,000 for a regular Interceptor or Continental GT650 but since my rims are wider, Way2Speed sent me an extra bottle to cover the surface and I had to pay Rs 6,500 for the kit.
Still, nothing in comparison to the Rs 27,000 I would have had to pay for Outex.
I've been using this kit for over a month now and have even done a 190 kmph run with them. The tyres have not lose any pressure whatsoever.
So, the kit has been working brilliantly for me.
Melvin told me that he has installed this tubeless conversion kit in over 20 motorcycles and none have reported any failure so far.
The one drawback of using this kit that I can think of, it is applied by hand, manually.
And that means, it will never be spread as evenly as the Outex tape. Which means, the wheel will never be 100 per cent balanced. Even though we will probably never be able to tell the difference, which would be minimal, it is still something that I thought I should highlight.
The long term reliability of this kit is yet to be seen. Since it is such a critical component, I am only laying the facts in front on you.
I am neither asking you to buy it, nor am I asking you not to. I can tell you though that it is working for me.
The rest is your call.
Melvin from Way2Speed can be contacted here for the tubeless kit: / way2speed
and +91 88258 61835
Needless to say, this kit is not just restricted to the Interceptor 650 and can be used on any spoked rim.
I hope you found this video useful.
Thank you so much for giving me your time. I hope you have a great day.
Cheers

I have been using this kit for more than a month and have not had any complaints so far. I have done 190 kmph too, along with riding the bike on some rough terrain too.

Good work. The only problem with these conversions is once you need recalibration of the wheels i.e. tightening or loosening of the spokes then you got to go through the whole process again which is cumbersome. In the long run its better to go with puncture resistant liquid which can be refilled incase of tyre change or tube change and it's very cost effective and a tried and tested procedure. It costs only 1000 to 1200 for both the wheels

Bro this is a silicone tube which is available in the range of Rs150 to 500Rs depending on the hardness & use u can easily get it from any hardware shop get the automotive silicone that they use to stick windscreens , they have better heat resistant which will be needed to combat tyre heat generation of long drives. Another point that i read on other comments they have rightly pointed out that if you rebalance the weel & tighten the spokes it will definitely loosen the silicon grip, even then it's cool u can do this every 10 k kms , this is a grt money saving idea if u buy silicone tube from the hardware store , under 500 + labour 😢

This may work for a low power bike like the RE, but rims for tubed and tubeless tires are different and doing this on a more powerful bike may just spin the tire on the rim. Tubeless rims will have "serrations" to grip the bead.

Like the way you made a simple and uncluttered video. Had got outex done formy Triumph Speedmaster rims. However in the last 1year it had to go back to the servhce centre thrice! One will know the efficacy only with about 3-5000 kms done on the odo. Suggest speak to the Manufacturer to understand how is this different from basic silicon which some here commented on. The difference in chemical composition (if any) will help people decide better

This is general purpose silicone caulk....no need to pay 5k for it...available in any hardware...the down side is each time the spokes have to be adjusted after "wheel out" u may have to rw do the entire process....just like the other 27k kit....so riders it's u r call However for silicone to make the spoke nipple hole air tight the following has to be followed strictly 1 remove all surface coats...paint powde coating etc...base metal to be visible 2 degreasing is a must 3 the surface should be highly polished and buffed because if u have to resilicone after rectifying wheelout it will be next to impossible to remove the old silicone 4 the silicone takes from a couple of hrs to semi harden...so either keep rotating the wheel slowly so that I he silicone doesn't flow to one side or lightly run teflon tape on the silicone to avoid flow.... Now u r done. Last step is to install a valve on the rim....all the best Personally I feel this is way to much of an headache....

Brother there is an Engineer at Chandigarh who charges Rs 4000 per bike and seals the rim so that you can go for tubeless on Spokes wheel. He also have the set up to balance the rim but there are extra charges for it. And instead of using Silicone based compounds, He uses his specially formulated compound that doesn't deteriorate by chain lubes or oil or even heat.

Basically it's silicon based sealant costs not more than 200 rs for around 250 ml & melvin's takes huge profit on it, Abhinav i didn't know you don't go to local mechanic's they must have been using this for a long time don't know about your city but my mechanic did it for rs 250 other than the sealant tubes which you can buy on amazon search for Dr. Fixit silicone sealant. Try that before you use Melvin's too costly sealant again next time. Thank me later.😊

What you are applying is high pressure silicone sealant, available for 600rs a can. At the speed you ride, an unbalanced rim will be very dangerous. This method does not provide equal weight distribution. I would avoid this.

Hi Abhinav it is a great way to make spoked wheel tubeless but my question is even if you apply seal/silicon gel to cover the nipples, won't it get distorted after a while due to heat and continuous pressure applied on spokes and ultimately to the nipples?

it definitely a far more practical solution compared to Outex. Moreover, Outex is expensive and is not available everywhere. Another thing that i have heard from people is that Outex at times has failed and there has been a leak. Further, if there is any failure in application the entire outex goes to the bin. In comparison Way2speed tubeless kit seems far easier in application and avoids chances of user error while installing the same.

Hey abhinav, if i am not wrong then major problem with spoked wheels is that they are flexible, and when they do so, tubeless tyres do loose pressure. I think that this is the reason why even big brands like triumph and honda do not offer tubeless tyres on tiger and africa twin. Can you please varify it by taking it on bumps and pot holes, with speed enough to cause some flex in the rim.
