Topic: Anyone running a Pirelli MT66 110/90-19 on the front of your 750?

I ask because it looks like mine is going to be just a hair too wide stuff into the K5 with the stock fender. 

The high ridge on the edge of the tire is rubbing on the inside of the brace where the brake line stay is attached.
The fender/brace isn't bent and it looks like no amount tweaking will give me enough clearance. 
(Unless I wanna start banging on things, which is tempting right now....)

Flame on stock tire size advocates!

Could you turn that ridge down with an angle grinder while spinning the tire?  I run 110 on all my bobber fronts but I don't use fenders.

Oh....you set yourself up for that one! What size was on it before?
My K4 has a 100/90...

Heh, that thought occurred to me. That probably would work, only need ~1/8 inch.
Yeah, for a bobber it would work fine.

Actually, I thought it looked kinda big when I had it mounted and even if it fit I'm not sure I like the look anyway.

Meh, I'm gonna ponder the possibilities while I rebuild the controls, on which a PO managed to strip every screw and produce some of the worst solder joints I've ever seen...

The tire that was on it was a rock-hard Spitfire 100/90 circa 1994.
