190/55 is incredible. Do it.

Great price, but I hated those tires.

There is a local dealer here in town that will match that price. The catch is... you need to pay them, $60 to install both tires. Otherwise you pay more without installation. I'd end up paying to have someone put them on anyway, so that's where I get my tires from. If you have a tire changer or access to one, then yeah this is a great deal.

Oh an Tigger in case your wondering it's Treads that's matching online prices.

Yep, I figured. That's where I bought my bike. They're the best deal in town for buying tires! Besides, that's $60 for both tires on the bike and they adjust your chain, lube it and they used to wash your bike as well, back in the day.

I got a new set yesterday in the 190/55 so we'll see! To be honest, I have my set-up EXACTLY where I want it and am a little concerned...

Do you not currently run a 55 or is the profile that much different from whatever tire you have now?

I run a 190/50 BT-002RS now, so this should quicken my turn in right? Hell my bike is lowered in front and raised in back and I went down a link in the chain... the damn thing is telepathic now!

When I put these on, I'll probably put the normal length chain back on. I was testing whether I could shorten my chain and still get it on the bike. It was tight but no problem. I think I shortrened the wheelbase an 1/2 or so...seems quicker,
