front tire size was created by 80G
On my 80 kz1000g, the current front tire size is 100/90/19. Would a 110/80/19 fit allright? I have transplanted a zx12 rear wheel that I plan to put on a 190 or 200 tire. The only matching set for the odd combination front and rear is a bridgestone Bt-020 if the 110 will work. Thanks

You can go to the Bridgestone site and get the actual measurements for the tire, then measure between your forks to see if it will fit.

I just looked and it lists the tread width at 4.3" but it don't list the section width (the widest part). 26" tall and requires a minimum of a 2.15 wide rim.
www.motorcycle-karttires.com/

They list the BT45 100/90/19 at 26.1" tall and 3.9" wide.

I am going with the stock 1000 for now. The only mod is switching from injection to carbs.
