Re: Tire size, ?
i always stick with stock sized tires so if its 130 keep it 130 as dependant on manufacturer the width will vary for instance i was going to fit a 180 Avon to replace a 170 Dunlop, well i could not get the 180 in time so had to have a 170 Avon instead well needless to say it was a massive 197mm when inflated and measured and fits perfectly, for some reaon Avon tires come out 15-20% bigger than others, good for custom bikes and they do not seem to suffer from to much growth when hot
