TomPerry 0 Posted June 13, 2020 What size tires were you running on this bike? They look a little wider than normal. I've got an 86 500 I'd like to get some wider rubber on, but don't wanna do the F2 wheel upgrade. They don't fit the look of the bike in my opinion. Quote Link to comment
Member Contributer Captain 80s 1,132 Posted June 13, 2020 They are Avon AM22/23 Sprint Compound road legal race tires. The reason they look so good is because Avons run quite a bit wider than the nominal size. Plus they are 70 series but have a perfect profile on these rims. 120/70-16 and a 130/70-18 (which they now list as a 135/70-18, but dimensionally identical). They are the best bias ply tires I have ever ridden on. They are VERY expensive now. Quote Link to comment
