For 18" fronts, look at 18" rears that would work OK reversed.
Where's the ride?

If we can find one narrow enough. The front is currently a 2.75-18. Not many rears this narrow. The TW12 looks reasonable for gravel, rocky and dry terrain.

just use your 'cough cough' DT125

DT230 is way to easy. Almost all of the bikes I've been looking at will be struggling to do much over 100 so a bike that will do 160 is definatly not playing the game
Here is one for the ultra keen. Honda CL50. (tardme linky). Top speed of 80kph!

Now that is truly in the spirit of things
It would be quite a challenge, as top cruising speed would be somewhat below the 80km/h max. Even the CT110 postie challenge bikes can crack what, 125km/h? but really couldn't be pushed above 90km/h for cruising.

really? i thought id be pushing 80kmph on my postie ct110, find out tomorrow probably :P, anything extra sounds awesome ;D

Anyone dreaming that a CT110 will crack 125 km/h has clearly never ridden one. On our 4-day off-road Stirling Point to the Picton Ferry trip a couple of years ago, we found that 65 km/h is a comfortable cruising speed, and by 80 you're screaming their tits off - even then, not a happening thing uphill or into a head wind.
It'll be really brave to ride one in the DB 1k 10, as I think it's average speed will be the bare minimum to complete the course in 24 hours.
Therefore, of course, it should be done.
Not by me - my CG125 is still looking good.

my 1970 CT90 would do 65mph
down Ngauranga Gorge with me in full racing crouch
sounded like it was going to explode - but never did.
this was 34 years ago.....
that's one sweet looking bike
Armature speller
That is a minter!
Where's the ride?
I'll take your word for it, haven't been near one for ages. They sound slower than the CT90s I rode on farms when I was at school, umm, in the mid-eighties. Pretty sure we were seeing 90+ on those without topping them out.
