Michelin Commander II 140/75/17 pictures please

Thanks Scorp that there is quite a gap isn't it, how does it feel? is it wearing well?

The gap don't look to good but another reason I'd think twice about using this tyre is you would be loosing a bit of ground clearence up the front. We know what scraping up the front leads to.
 
Put a Bridgestone on the back and it sort sort of counters that (I know, not completely and mainly in the centre of the bike) but I can't see it being a major issue for someone your size Bruce. Plenty of blokes that weigh 50kg more than you riding who will lower the bike more than the 15mm (1/2") the tyre does. They get by. Plus don't forget the back's 12mm higher if you put a 55 on there.

Plus I have another 20mm in the rear shocks:)
