|
So I have searched around here to see what others are running. Brand and size mostly. Then I went looking at sites to see what there was out there. I am having close to no luck.
I have an 80 XS650 with the wire spoke wheels. The stock tire is still on there. I am having trouble finding the right size in a decent brand of tire. Can someone point me in the right direction. Perhaps a site were others have found stock size tires or something close. any help would be nice.

I ordered a front tire from www.cruisercustomizing.com.
Dunlop D404.................inexpensive tire , only $58.07.
A little slow on delivery..........took 3 weeks to ship to Canada, but shipping was free.

| thank you. I am new to motorcycles and I think part of the problem was conversion of metric to inch. Now that I know what I am looking for in either size it really helps. Thanks again.
