| The specified tire size for the Vision rear tire is 180/60 R16 80H. Has anyone installed a 180/70 R16? My speedometer reads about 2MPH faster than I'm actually running and I think the taller tire would correct that. Any experience with the taller tire? |

New Orleans, La, | Yes I have. The 70 series tyre is taller and rubs every part of the swing arm close to the tyre especially on the tread that contacts the road ie mid tread. Don't do it. JMHO. |

Rancho Cucamonga, CA | I am using the Michelin Commander 2. It is a 180/65B-16 tire. I have had no trouble with its size and my speedometer now reads the same as my gps. |

| I have 15K miles on the dunlop and she still has some tread left. Do you have a feel for how many miles you'll get out of the Michelin? |
