Tyre size GS550EZ

[hampshirehog]

Hi hampshirehog,
What make are your brake lines and did the rear one fit or did you have to put grommets arond the braided brake line?

I made them up myself using components from HEL. To fit the clips I slid a couple of short lengths of oil hose over the braided hose.

If you're thinking of doing the fronts I don't think anyone does the short lengths as part of a kit for the anti dive.

Brakelines for GS550EZ with antidive
I used some fuel line over my braided steel brakelines on my BMW so I will try that again.

My tyres are tubeless but they might have innertubes inside them. I didn't see anything on the rims for being suitabele for tubeless. But I am almost certain that even on my 1982 Suzuki GS850 I had tubeless tyres fitted .

My '79 GS550 E is running 120/90-18 rear and 100/90-19 front and I love it.

Avon still makes the 3.25/19 - 4.00/18 combo

I use them on my GS 1000 and GPz 550

I just orderded the same for my GS550. Having them fitted next monday. Must be a massive improvement with the tyre I have fitted now. This tyre was on it and it is as flat as a pancake even when it has got the right tyrepressure .
