Front tyre
Hi there mates, I need some help here.
I bought a tyre, and when I got home, I realise it was a front tyre instead the rear tyre I need, with the same size, so the question is Can I use a front tyre as a rear tyre? It is a Continental TKV11(front) tubeless, it is for a Suzuki GN125 Any help would be great Thanks mates

Sorry
 - no way to use this as a back tyre. Front wheel use ONLY - you will need a TKV12.The TKV11 will fit - but the profile is developed only for front wheel use - too dangerous to use it as backtyre - please don't do this.

Thanks Bubbla, too bad, I will have to give it back at the tyre store. I would like to fit tubeless type tyres instead tube tyres in this bike, what do you recommend, is it worth it for this cheap bike? Thanks again Bubbla

tubeless tyres
Hej Viktor,
I just know that the GN 125 models sold in Europe between 1996 up to 1999 had spoke wheels - if your bike has this kind of wheels you'll have to stay with the tube tyres - tubeless is not possible on most spoke rims. best regards Uwe

Thanks again Bubbla, the rim has no spokes, it is just the bike has these tube type tyres as OEM equipment, it must be because it is a chinese Suzuki. I will look for proper tubeless tyres then.
Thanks mate
