tire

The bags and windshield are cruiser comforts, easy enough to remove for a day at the track: Cat delete, Akrapovic system, Air mod, Gurued flash, Pegs lowered 1", Bar raised 2", Aircraft alu bag frame, custom bags, titanium mirror/ windshield/ handlebar support, custom cut polycarbonate UV...

Anyone fitted this combo?(stock rims) Impressions? Thanks

Hi all, I have been looking at front tires for my 2001 (as I found mine is 10yrs old) With the new technology I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on a fairly sticky tire. I ride fairly aggressively (sometimes). I live in Vancouver, Canada & the weather can vary considerably, so hot or cold...

About 300 miles ago I put a set of Metzler Roadtech 01's on my bike and they are all they claim to be. No more rolling burnouts they've become instant wheelies. They feel like rails around corners especially long sweepers. I've only had one opportunity to ride them on wet roads. They did...

Hello, My first forum! I have a 1985 Yamaha Vmax 1200 and want to know what is the widest I can go with out making any modifications. Thanks Rick

Hey again, sorry if it seems like I'm hogging the forum. I'll try not to have any further concerns with my max, lol. So low and behold I spotted this on my rear tire. New tire? Or a plug will work ok? I'm kind of paranoid about the idea of a rear tire disintegrating from under me...

I have replaced the bias ply with Shinko radial on the rear. The tire says pressure is 42psi. For those on radials, is that right as I am used to running mid 30s on bias ply.

I am looking to widen my front tire to match my 240 rear tire. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My new rear tire came in. So y'all know what THAT means....... :biglaugh: I recorded a video, but I can't seem to upload it. So here's a photo:

Wanted to delete the rear fender and it looks very empty back there. What's the biggest tire I can run on a stock 86 rim and what are good upgrades. Thanks

Wath snow an tire have in common? :rofl_200::rofl_200: they both melt :rofl_200::rofl_200:

Tire pressure 40psi. I take turns to the point that I'm scraping the kickstand. Lowered 1" internally.

My rear tire is currently square and bald in the center. Shows my riding style, I suppose. The next drag race scheduled here in Hungary is on April 29-30. I'm not a big long distance rider, so not many miles (Km) will be ridden between now and then. My options: 1. Ride lightly and hope the...

I seen an article just a while back where someone done a "washer swap" and installed a wider rear tire, I'm wanting to check into it again, I want a wider rear tire as well as my friend on his bike. Can someone assist me? Thanks, Steve Kent

What would be the most square rear tire for a Gen1 (sidecar use) without getting to the dark side? Thks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So, got the rear tire swapped out (rode over a nail!!!), but I pulled it myself to save a few bucks. Have done it once or twice before. When I was putting things back, I think I lost a spacer. I've looked all over my garage though, and cannot find anything. This is what I have. From the...

Does anyone know if a 170/80-15 will fit without any issues on the rear of 2002 Vmax? Everything is stock with swingarm and so forth. Thanks, Steve

I have a used wheel and tire for a 2001 vmax the one side is very good the other has pitting and oxidized chrome. No dents or other damage.

I read that 200/50/R-18 for rear tire and for front 120/70/R-18 on a 2nd Gen Vmax is that correct?

I'm looking at buying a 2009 Vmax or a 2010 what is the widest rear tire that will fit on the stock wheel?
