On stock suspension the stock tires are more than adequate... Once the suspension gets upgraded, the 2 best 12" race tires are the Dunlop TT93 and the Bridgestone 601SS...

Ordered the first batch of mods. Mostly cosmetics and street stuff. I did get new handle bars to make it a little more comfortable when tucking(which seems to happen a lot on this bike).
I've been searching around for the Dunlop tt93 but it seems they don't come in stock tire size, all I have found is 100/90-12 and 120/90-12. Will those work even though they are far from the stock sizes?
the stock tires use balloon sizes because that is what the kids on the corner think looks cool... the 100 front and 120 rear are the proper sizes for the width of rims...
So even with stock sizes having a 70 aspect ratio it will be fine with the 90's? How is wet grip for the tt93?
the stock sizes have little to do with performance and everything to do with looks...
as far as wet grip, I can't comment...
Thanks for the help.
