Tyre questions for the k1200s riders.

(1/1)

Devon 1200s:
Hello everyone, a tyre question for k1200s owners/X owners, regarding rear tyre size and profile.

I ride a 2008 k1200s and I’m on the standard 190 50 17 size tyre.

Been reading a few articles about the benefit of going up to a 55 profile rear tyre, so here’s my questions.

Has anyone here gone up to a 55 profile rear tyre?

Did you stick with 190 width or did you go to 180?

How did you find the ride after the change?

Cheers in advance

I’ve read this post must be half a dozen times and it says the same thing every time I read it cuz my initial thoughts were it’s a TTPP it always says the same,I run a 190/55/17 rear even with my bad memory do not even remember it having anything else even as far back as 08.
