Has anyone run the Harley tubeless spoked rims on a Sofail with a tubeless tire? See Harley rim seal kit for laced wheels link;

Are these seal kits effective for laced wheels?.
I am wanting to run a Deluxe with Harley Tubeless spoked rims and tubeless tires.
I don't want the cost of changing over rims and the rims do say "Tubeless". Checked with my local dealer and they don't recommend running them tubeless even with the Harley seal kit installed, in fact the Deluxe in there show room has tubeless spoked rims and they have put tubes in them.
I am wanting the ability to plug holes on the road.

i havent got experience , but i did look at solutions many years ago . My thoughts at the time was its an imperfect system BUT unless you do longer trips then it should be fine. ( you are not going to be stranded too far away from civilisation )
the other thing to consider is that the tyres for your harley are a bit tougher than the softer compounds found on sports bikes. I never got a puncture on my softtail , but have suffered 4 in the past 2 years on my sports bikes. all my bikes do lots of k's
I'm not sure if this is ok to upload, but will try. 2012 HD Technical Forum from HD.
