I would like to explore the option of fitting a Tuff-Up tube (provided by Honda) in the tyre. I understand this will help me deal with sudden deflation occurring due to punctures. Please enlighten me with the pros and cons for this......

Rear tyre for ZMA
I want to change the rear tyre for my ZMA. Thinking for going in for a 120 section tyre so that it provides good grip while cornering. But have some doubts. Fitting an 120 section tyre would decrease the accelaration as well as fe, right? Is there any means to counter the decrease in accelaration? Like may be getting a 120X17 tyre istead of 120X18.
The main confusion is to go for a tyre-tube combo or tubeless. Most of the people prefer tyre-tube combo but i feel tubeless is better due to go on some distance in case of a pucture.
Please advise soon since planning a tyre change this weekend.
Also the cost(In Delhi/Gurgaon) of Michellin M45, MRF zapper Q and Zapper Y would be apprecieated.

Hey Guys ,
I'm a noob where tyres are concerned so any inputs appreciated . I have a similar doubt regarding changing the tire on my R-15 ! I enquired about Pirelli Sport Demon for the bike and they have only the rear tire in stock size . The front they say i will have to upgrade only . Is it worth it ? I DON"T want to upsize .
Thanks,
