Adding to Tire size wars de-lurk
Hello!
You'all know me as the resident lurker. As a previous racer etc, I have my opinion on tire sizes. I'm a 120/70 180/55 kinda guy. You re-set the bike and its the right thing for me! I always thought the fat stuff was for show.
You go look at race DOTs and you see only those sizes. Maybe a 170 for the 5.5 rims.

drag not applicable Note - these tires ain't for drag guys and my comments do not apply to draggers either (190 or 200 may work great there

Full throttle!

Hey, good seeing you post, WL! And that's interesting, let me know how the Rennsports work out. I've got a set of 208GPs for my 12 after I wear out the BT56SS tires on it.

They have 190/55 listed for the Sportec M1 also. I was wondering if that was a typo.
