Thanks for all information submitted concerning using an oversize tire on the rear of the bike, would it fit, etc. Now to answer the question WHY?
With the event of needing tire replacement soon, I considered a larger tire footprint for wet weather riding, and for more efficient braking. Now would be the appropriate time to make the change if there is enough room for the oversize tire. I'm new with operating the 1800, but I didn't want to pass up the possibility of gaining more knowledge as too what other operators are gaining with their modes operation. I totally understand that in most situations that deviations to Honda's specifications can cause less than desireable riding/handling charastics, however there are some opportunities with the vast knowledge of 1800 riders/operators that can also improve the riding'handling charastics of the bike. Just wanted too know what the experts with vast amounts of 1800 care and riding were doing. The Chief thanks you again:yes1:.........
