Been to a couple of motocross shops they mainly do inch size tube. Would equivalent tube be 4.00/4.5" or 4.5/5.0" or bigger? Or just the best ones /best priced metric tubes to buy, please? Thanks
Plenty of places you can get metric 130/80x17 inner tubes. Infact they cover a range of sizes.

Here's one to try - http://tyresalesuk.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=26_27_35&pr oducts_id=119#.U4BvGSqF93g

All I'd add is, it is worth getting a branded tube, the cheap economy ones I've tried over the years tend to be a little too porous and need constant re-inflation.
