Tyre size help please
#4
We'll went to pick up my tyres and shockingly I got it wrong lol :rolleyes . The front tyre I've got is a 110/70/17( got a couple actually) was surprised.. It was the rear that was wrong. I've got a 170/60/17 and not stock 160/60/17. Took the plunge this afternoon anyway and changed them both and it fits with a little Fettling to the hugger as the tyre being slightly wider it was just about catching it. And to be honest I think it feels a bit better at the back end. Having jacked it up 55mm, it feels loose at the back when I don't have a top box attached so tend to always ride with it on even when not needed.. Put the bigger tyre on and it feels comfertable on the road with no top box and feels like it's got better traction.. Big Grin
It's not a speed limit it's a target
