Just figured out that 3.25 was stock on my bike,which equates to roughly 82mm.i cant find many 90/90 tires.can someone recommend a quality tire in 90/90?

Metzeler makes the Lazertec front in 3.25/19. I've worn out several of them over the years starting way back when they were called the ME33 Lazer.
