Hi Folks,

Just wondering about running a 130 rear on a DR650.

Is it a good/bad/indifferent idea? There just seems to be a bit more choice when it comes to the 130's

Opnions/experiences please!

Thanks.

I am too. Had the MT21, currently running a D606 130 and also have a Shenko 5.1 which I understand is the same as the 130. No problems here either.
