Tire sizes

[Budgar]

Trying to get whitewalls for a 750 aero. So far no luck finding them. Anyone know of someone who has the aero's size, or if you can put a different size tire on? If you can, what is the range? Thanks for any help.

I saw somewhere someone made a white wall with tire paint

People on the Aero750 forum are running WWW dunlops. I'm trying to do a search for what sizes they are running now..

ok, the guys over there with WWW are running dunlops I believe.

Front
140/80-17: and report "That's considerably wider than the stock 120/90-17 and mine did rub a little for the first 25 miles or so."

Rear:
170/80-15: report "wider than the stocker which is 160/80-15, but it doesn't cause a problem and IMO, looks better on the bike with just that little extra width."

"In the Dunlop WWW, the smallest 17" they make is a 140/80-17. That's considerably wider than the stock 120/90-17 and mine did rub a little for the first 25 miles or so."


hope that helps

ok not that I want the tires but I have to ask....... with the tire riding the fender for 25 miles which melts down first, the tire or the fender? LOL

Don't know.. I was just copying and pasting someones coments. I don't have WWWs.. I'd guess that his tire went first though.. ;) One other guy mentioned that he ground down the sidewall just a bit and it was fine.

Those are the 1100 Shadow sizes. I know a guy who is running thewm on his Aero with no problems. Thats what Im going with next.
