I see, understand what you mean. I'll get me coat

never worry lol thats all i really started this for just 2 see if the WOW were worth buying but i never took them anyways and im now all sorted etc...

I run a 120 front, but 150 rear

im all sorted now anyways blue i ended up with what i think is the ryt size for the sv which is 120/160 in my eyes i think the 110/150 is for the aprilia rs125 anything 250 above useally has at least a 120/160.

That is BS ... I used to use 120/150 on my 600

(and that is where I actually got the 150 for the SV )

i havnt seen much bigger bikes 2 be honest with a 150 but anyways the sv rim is designed for a 160!

My 600 had/has a 180 rim

I was told to run a 150 by a specialist, it wasn't one of my now world famous Blue_ 'suck it and see' ideas

My bad ... it was a 165 not a 150 (just had a look) it had a 5 in it though right

I just remembered it/them being smaller than the dry tyre ... which it was, just 165, not 150 ...
