What about a 120/70 ?

[wismo]

Would that be best they have those

[md86]

That's what I got now , and no complaints . It's fairly common for people to use a 120/70 instead of a 110/80 .

tires

ordered tire on the 12th already here today.They look good now i need to mount them.How hard is it to align the rear tire after i take it off.Those alignment marks are not accurate to use are they?

[md86]

I wouldn't trust those marks ...
I just ordered a chain alignment tool to take the guesswork out of it . Just eyeball it the best you can , really .

just got the tires mounted balanced today 35.bucks each.Could ony find one place that could do it today and that didnt complain about NOT getting the tires through them.What a P.I.T.A.Anyway,did my best to line up the backtire using alignment things as a guide starting point.Im guessing as long as the tire is centered in swingarm im pretty good but i need to invest in tools to do my own tires and one of those alignment tools.Just need to check pressure tomorrow and ride em a little without sliding around they feel slick sorry bout the rant
