Rear tire size - 1982 GS450T
Hello all. I have recently acquired a 1982 GS450T that has been literally hiding in a barn for 23 years. The tires were new - in 2002 - and that's when the bike was parked for unknown reasons. The stock rear tire size is 110/90-17, which apparently has been nearly unavailable for a long time. The tire that was put on the bike in 2002 is slightly wider at 120/90-17, probably because the PO couldn't find the 110 width. It looks good, but it rubs slightly at the chain guard. What have other people done - go wider in width as was done here, or fit a shorter tire of 110/70-17?
