OMG...your bike looks like a 'pocketbike' with you on it!!!

240 is more fuctional for the big tire kits, once you go bigger rides really flat and you notice it.

bigger the tire = more unsprung wieght = less hp cf lighter = more hp

Go big or GTFO, IMO.

I personally think stretching without going fatter, looks dumb. It doesn't look right proportionately.

16' long bike on 10-speed tires = ghey.

I'm with you on the size, kinda. 6'4"/245. I'm going big.

whoa....old thread here-sorry Mike to bust the bubble, but I didnt even get rims yet, got skeerd that CF wont hold up to all the street abuse Id be throwin at'em with WI n IL pot-holes all over where I commute...

but I wont be going big-after seeing a few Busas with fat-tire kits in person, i know they are not for me.
I also plan on doing LSR racing at Maxton this year, so any wider-than-oem rim would be like a crutch for the bike, slowing me way down. sticking with stockers for now, hoping to get some exposure n hopefully pick up sponsord rollers after Maxton if I do well in May

bike looks pretty good +9" w/OEM size rear, IMO

 

[BigDiesel]

better view of rear

and strait-behind
