I have a 100/90-16 tire on the front and a 140/90-16 tire on rear. Having hard time finding the 100/90-16 front tire. Have a stock front end and fender on my
74 SOHC. Could I run something bigger without scrubbing the fender? Any recommendations as to size and where to buy?
Thanks! DG |

Hey dg- are you typo'ing on the size? Did you mean to say you're now running a 100/90-19?

i plan to run a 110 on my stock
front. from what i've heard and from what i see when i mock it up, i don't think you can go any wider.
EDIT: i guess i didn't really address your fender question, just whether or not it will rub against the lowers. not sure about the fender issue since i wasn't planning on running one. n

O.k. - I goofed on the front tire. It is a 19" and the rear is a 16". I guess someone tried to give it more of a "chopper" look with a
smaller rear wheel. How will this affect the ride of the bike? Any recommendations on what type of tires to buy? I see all the websites with the
designations, "cruiser tires", "sport touring" tires, etc. This will be a daily rider. Not in rain hopefully. Also, any recommendations
as to where to buy? Thanks in advance! DG
