200 rear tire?
I was just wondering if anyone has a 200 rear tire on there 14, i have a friend with a busa and he has a 200 and it looks great, i am just wondering how it handles and performs. Thanks in advance!! P.S I drag race more than i do turns.

lol I put a 190 on my 12 and wish i had done it years ago. I have no more chickstrips and it handles Waaaaaaay better pilot powers are the shizt. A 200 is way too flat not enough contour.

Just put Dunlop DOT, D209GP's, take offs on the 14 - 190/60 rear. Rear is taller and now under hard accel little bit of headshake - on the street, feel and grip is excellent. BTW had a 12R for 6 six years and ran a 200, it had no chicken strips - in the hands of the rider!!

It won't be able to throw rubber up on me. I photochopped the tag ouit of the picture with paint. With the stock tire and burn out, it just fills the undertail and under tha tag up with rubber and not me and the light. I hope to know more this Sunday.
