Front tire and fender
I want to put a more dual sport type tire on the front of my sv650. Have not been able to find one short enough to fit under the fender. Any ideas?

Re: Front tire and fender
Just check your fender is fitted correctly& any fender extender is appropriately installed
No reported clearance issues with the available slightly higher tyres

Re: Front tire and fender

A 120/70 fits without fouling

Re: Front tire and fender
I have not found a 120/70 in this style tire. Looking for something like a Shinko 705. Any suggestions. Thanks for the help.
