What tire do you have on the front there? That's not a stock sorcher 2. What did you go with for the front?

​​​​​​​It is a Metzelers Marathon ME880 XL. its a rear tire. I mounted it in reverse to go on the front.

I get occasional drips also. always wondered what it was from as it lands on the rear swingarm.

Those are breakout wheels right? what are all the specs for the front as I see it looks like you're still running a stock fatboy fender

Ah I see.
I was looking at the 150/70/18inch rear tires to put on front. Been wondering if anyone else has tried a 150/70 front.
