tire help

[disturbed]

im after a new rear tire for my nc24.

factory suggests a 130/70-18 what sizes would be safe to go to. it has a 130/80-18 on it at the mo.

any suggestions for tires.....on a budget too

ok i got a quote for a rear pilot gt fitted for $250 is this a good price?

also will a 140/60-18R fit my bike?

Might fit, might rub the swingarm - will slow the steering down though, and maybe cause other handling problems. If 130 is standard, and its available, why change it? 140 is probably more expensive too. Keep it thin and enjoy having a lightweight flickable bike!
