Does anyone know what the rear tire height is on the LTD 1000? I'm doing a swingarm/wheel conversion, and I need to figure out what size sprockets I need to be close to the same gearing. My original rear wheel and tire are long gone. Thanks.

Im thinking a 16x130/90 would be a pretty common size tire for it.

May find various tire-related measurements on Dunlop's site, including overall tire diameter, applicable rim widths, etc.

Am thinking overall tire diameter of rear tire is about the same on LTD and standard model, as is axle height.Scootjockey wrote: Does anyone know what the rear tire height is on the LTD 1000?

Just measured the tire on my KZ 1000 LTD at about 25 1/8 inches tall. I have a Metzeler ME 55 130/90 - 16 on it.
