tires for 77 750

[Anonymous]

I have a GS750 1977. It was the base model for that year as it has 1 front brake. The tires currently on the bike are shot and I am preparing for replacing them. The sizes are Rear 130x80x18 and the front is 110X90X19

The front tire size seems easy to find and the rear difficult.

I am not confident this is the original size tire and what would one size smaller be?

Thanks

The rear tire on a stock 77 750 is 4.00x18. I currently use 120/90x18 on the rear of my 79. They're easy to find in this size.

the front is oversized should be a 100/90/19 -- 110 will work
I would drop the fork tubes down in the tripples to lower it as much as you can maybe 1/2 "

Thank you for the additional information. I was able to go back and adjust my order.
