Default Your opinion & knowledge

I was going to put something about ***** to label the thread but thought that might **** you guys off like it does me

I searched the older post and have not realy found the info I would like.
here is the skinny

03 RKC - I need a new back tire...I don't know jack about them.
my riding is split about 50/50 2 up.

Yes, you can run a 140. I have been on my '99 RK for years.

If you need a whitewall then I'd go with Metzler.

Just leave it alone with the stock width. All you'll do is **** of the mechanic whom has to change the tire. There will be less room for the caliper and the pulley will get scratched. Why go bigger? To look cool? To make it look fatter? Leave it alone.

So actually this thread has nothing to do with *****, opinions or knowledge. It is just another how wide, what is the best tire thread.
Seriously on a bagger the tire is mostly hidden. Nobody is going to notice how wide it is and the stock size will probably fit and perform better.
