    100/90-18 front and 120/90-16 rear. Lots of guys are loven the Shinko Tourmaster's these days; cheap yet high quality tire from what people say.

      D ?
      Your sig line says 1982, which is Z. D is 83.
      Probably doesnt effect your tire question.

          Not sure about the sizes available, but the Shinko Tourmaster 230 is a V-rated tire, the Shinko 712 is an H-rated tire. Either one of them is far better than the bike needs, as far as speed capability. Another viable option is the Kenda 657 Challenger. All three of these are inexpensive, you should be able to get the pair for not much more than $100. I just put a pair of Challengers on "Freebie", I think the total was $114.

            The Shinko 712's I put on the 750 have been great.
