Thats the setup I am running with my 88. I dont know about 50mph with decent torque though...

the only tire i have seen problems with are the 90/90-10. had to add link to chain and run axle all the way back to keep tire from rubbing swinger, front tire rubs a little on fork boot. but they do work

Running 38 tooth in the rear, perfect for me.

fastRob · 08-19-2008, 01:10 PM

i want more top speed so im leaning toward a 33 or 34 in the back, but still want to be able to pull wheelies!

Havent used the chen shing street tires before but the $15 IRCs work great...so i wouldnt be too concerned about it.

I have Pirelli SL26s on my stock rims and they're 3.5" wide.

That's exactly what I run and they work just fine and can handle a lot of abuse.

plugs in a tubed tire? Or do you run tubeless??

I run the IRC's also, or anything I get for free out of the trash at my local dealers!

Haven't bought a tire for my 50 in over 2 years, I usually find 1 or 2 tires every couple months behind my yamaha dealer lol

I run tubeless. A lot easier to just plug a hole than take the tire off and patch the tube.

If you really don't want to worry about flats just run tireless.

I've tried it before, after you jump a few curbs your rims naturally cause you to bust o's , tires are overrated anyways

Adam134 · 08-23-2008, 07:47 PM

No sh*t?? And what size tires did you use that rubbed? I run sl26s too...who cares what most houston riders use. I was referring that you can use anything from the 2.75s up to 3.50 kenda which use to be on my bike.

sdg125cc · 09-29-2008, 01:47 PM

Im runnin 3.00 on my sdg, but have found that they do not fit well. I dont know if I missed something in tire changing 101 but. It doesnt seat all the way around. Havent checkd the rim width yet but it makes the wheel wobble. which sux for stoppies. I know the tube is 2.75, but ive almost busted the tube to get the tire to seat and nothing. ive been rockin the wobbles for 5 mo. now!! what to do???

turboglenn · 09-30-2008, 03:31 PM

I've seen a 3.5 on the rear of a 50 in kansas city, it HAD to have the chain adjusters ALL the way back, and it still was only about 1/4" from rubbing..

if his chain wasen't long enough to run the adjusters fully tight, then it woudln't have fit
