Just thought I should share this photo.
My Triumph Rocket III with a slightly more narrow than stock (by 3/4") and slightly taller than stock (by 3'4" center to tread) 225/55 16 fit just right. The Bridgestone Touranza is a run flat tire to boot.
This rubber should be good for quite along time, while keeping me from blowing $400 to purchase and have mounted a stock monster sized OEM tire.

One of these days- hopefully soon- our funding will be solid and we will be building the MEALER Automobile and plan to offer a motorcycle as well... Just for the enjoyment of it we're going wide on the tires for at least one model of the MEALER motorcycle.

I probably should have cleaned the old tape backing off the tire and maybe cleaned the bike a bit before the photo... But you get the idea.
This VTX1800 Custom you have on your Hick Machine site is a nice looking bike. Did you do that?

I have talked to a few goldwing riders and they swear by a run-flat tire.
I like the Rocket3, massive engine (140hp) but I was told that it rides real good for a 700 pound bike.
I can't brag about how light I got it , my VTX is over 600 pounds and not near as the HP as you have.
thanks for posting the picks Muntz will like that,,, althrough he hasn't said hello or sent any baby pics in a wile.
