larger rear tire

[stephantmi]

What is the widest tire that will fit the 5" rear wheel?

Would a roadster rear wheel fit a touring?

I'd like to have a wider, preference for the 240 rear tire, any suggestions?

Buy a Roadster and put hard bags and a windshield on it .. be the cheapest way to get a 240 rear wheel.

Yes, what Tomcat said. The swing arm and rear subframe are different on the Touring

I installed a 200/60/16 Bridgestone on the back of my touring bike.
It just came back from the Dragon without any bumps or bruises.

And the Roadster guys, they treat us like a stepchild.

I wish I could get that 200/60R16 on the standard's rim. A 200 is going to corner better than the 240.

You can get a 205/60/16 on a Touring no problem.

Funny .. I'd happily swap my 240 rear for a 200 funny 'ol world ain't it.
