Im going to pick up a gas tank from a local guy and he also has a 180/55/zr17 rear tire for sale cheap. My rear tire doesn't hold air, so would this tire be worth picking up?

CORRECTION........ IT DOES FIT BUT NOT RECOMMENDED FOR SERIOUS RIDERS. I RUN A 180-55-17 BUT I DONT DO A WHOLE LOT OF SERIOUS RIDING MOSTLY COMMUTING AND FOR SHOW. THE KATANA STOCK RIM ISNT WIDE ENOUGH FOR THAT SIZE TIRE.Originally posted by arsenic View Post

once you see how wide rim a 180 tire requires you understand why its a BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD idea.

Your rim is also an inch wider than the OP's. I wouldn't recommend it even for non serious riders with a 4.5 rim like yours.Originally posted by KatanaBrett View Post1992- project katfighter

I think there is a 160 on there now.... ill have to run out and check. Thanks for the info though guys.Comment

160/60 is fine for a 4.5" rim (like 98-06 Katanas have). Yours is 3.5" wide. You need a 150/70.
