Topic: What tire size is this?

[Bigmant]

Hey gang!

Wondering what everyone thinks these tire sizes are? I am not looking to go wider for the chopper/bobber look, but rather fill the space of the fenders to not leave so much of a gap between the fenders and tire.

Any thoughts?

Looks like a 5.00 x 16inch ..

That sample bike appears to have the clearance between the rear tire and fender reduced to a level that will cause interference on a bumpy road.

You could add some period correct (Shoei or ?) bags and cover up the "space"

Stock shocks and lowering blocks will get you most of the way there...  and nothing will rub .
 A bit reduced  clearance.  But many of us logged tens of thousand miles, set up that way..

So stock tires with a slightly lowered suspension ought to do the trick?

Be a big help , won't look as meaty. .
