    Check posts by Swanny and Gerry in this section. The three of us have done the mod and there is plenty of info in those threads.

        Would I be correct in saying that if you modify the front , you should also modify the rear??

        cheers Katana

          You can get by running a radial up front and a bias ply on the rear, but not vice-versa. Appearance wise the Gixxer front tire is the same width as most stock GS rears. Also, the rims won't match. Adapting a 4.5" Gixxer rim from the '88 750 isn't much work and will hold a 160 width tire.
