I don't see the problem or why you would want to fix it.

what would happen if it stepped out too much? just learning.. thanks!

[ninjaturtle]

Sounds like a great bike.

Yeah mate hilarious, using the words '250' and 'traction control' in the same sentence

We're only having some fun, don't get uptight. It sounds very simple, either tyre pressure is way off or tyre is rooted

cheers for your help! almost everyone else that has commented have been fuckwits about it..

Welcome to KB

There is no malice behind the humour man from most on here. Just have a laugh and throw some shit back.

Once you get old and no one wants to shag you anymore like this lot they start losing their minds and forget what it was like to start out not knowing the answers to everything in life

The traction control comment on a 250 was funny in all fairness

Good luck with the bike!

Any tire with Shinko or Kenda(or similar) on the side wall you'll probably better off riding on what you have... just saying

Absolutely nothing bad would happen... Unless you shut off the throttle and high side it. Trust me, I'm a motorbike drifter and a doctor.

Sorted it out, well more found out what the problem was.. I have a Bridgestone Battlax on the rear atm that seems to have hardened over time so I need a new tyre. Its a bitch of a size to find though. If anyone knows where to get hold of a 150/60 - 18" rear tyre that would be appreciated!

try drury performance tyres. unsurprisingly, in drury.

also. htfu.

The info didn't copy and paste well

Is your rear rim 18x4?

You could use the 140 so the back of the bike isn't raised due to the tyre OD

VJ21 RGV 250 had 18x4 rims as well and work good with 140 rear
