Can I fit lower speed rated motorcycle tires?
Motorcycle tyres withe the M&S mark can be used with a lower speedindex then in your vehicle handbook.
For example when you want to mount on a BMW R 1250 GS offroad tyres.
You can get specific ‘winter motorcycle tires’. These are better known as M+S rated tires. M+S stands for Mud and Snow and tyres that are M&S rated usually have a snowflake symbol on the tyre wall or they will clearly mention M+S. In countries where winter tyres are a legal requirement, motorcycles are required to have them fitted.
In the most EU countries the Speedlimit with M&S Wintertires is Q = 160 km/h

Flat tyres happen on a motorcycle. But how to fix punctures in tubeless tyres - and even if they should be repaired - is a sensitive issue. It all depends on who you ask. The truth is that drivers are constantly repairing flat tyres, but they can clog them indiscriminately if they have limited knowledge of the proper repair process or the risks associated with driving on a repaired tyre.
For motorcycle tires, repairs up to six millimeters in diameter are only permitted on the tread. However, the tire manufacturers advise against the punctured carcass and high driving speeds.
