  1. ive just bought some slicks for a trackday in almeria in november and noticed its a 190/60. will it fit my 1198?
    thanks
     
  2. Think it depends on what hugger your running?? Think they fit if take the hugger off.

  6. You might struggle to reach the floor.
     
  7. There is 0.75" difference in tyre diameter between the 55 profile and the 60 profile although the calculator I've got doesn't address tyre width between profiles. This topic has been covered at length on here for slicks and consensus seems to be that there is not a problem. Andy

  8. even better go 200/60 ;)
     
  9. That didn't fit Ash's 1098R which to all intents and purposes is an 1198. Andy
     
  10. Who cares: looks mint of the back of a bike that big, tall and fat tyre LOL
