Question:

Off-road tube in a Motorcycle tire?

I have a 2003 Suzuki Savage LS650. Front tire has a Front Dunlop D404 100/90-19.I‘m looking into replacing the tube inside the tire. Can I just buy an ultra heavy duty tube that is for off-road for extra protection if its the same size? or are the off-road tubes made differently and won‘t perform/last on the road?

For the best answers, search on this site shorturl.im/S5it8 Hubcaps just cover plain steel wheel to dress the wheels up. Rims and wheels normally mean you're going to replace/upgrade the original wheels with alloy or chrome rims. Hubcaps are fairly cheap compared to upgrading rims/wheels.
This Site Might Help You. RE: Difference between wheel covers and rims? I have been looking at rims lately and they are very expensive. But wheel covers however and pretty cheap. What is the difference between them?
why would you want to replace the tube ? unless you've had a puncher.
The heavy duty offroad tubes are meant for rough terrain (rock fields, high speed desert runs, enduro events, basically anywhere you need extra insurance against a flat). The tubes on dirtbikes will just as quickly succumb to a nail or puncture as quickly as a street tube would. They wouldn't be of any benefit if your front tire kicked up a screw and set the back tire up for the hit. The best advice I can give is to have an extra tube at the ready in case the first one goes on you.
A tube is a tube.It really doesn't matter on or off road.
