I have ridden the newer Harleys with the narrower rear tyres, they handle so much better, than my 09 fatbob.
Also I know of some bike owners have put narrower wheels on their bikes and the cornering handling has improved.
I was considering putting a narrow rear tyre on my Fatbob that has a 180 width rear tyre, maybe down to 150,
I was wonder if it would fit the original rim?
I would like to hear the comments of anyone has experience with switching tyre widths
Front tyre is a 130.
