Man I have been doing too much reading trying to decide what tire will fit on the 1300C rear rim I have waiting to put on my 1300S. The more reading I do the more confused I am getting.Will the 195/65/R15 fit under my fender without any mods other then the bolt on the exhaust bracket?

I am looking at these tires.

You can go up to a 205 without any mods, except the exhaust bolt. So yes your right.

Well here are some pics. I took it out for a test ride tonight. I think I need to play with air pressure. It felt a little squirrelly in the corners. Maybe I just need to get used to it but right now I am hoping that a different air pressure well improve the handling.
