Hi all

Has anyone on here fitted a 120/70 front tyre, to the stock wheel and with the stock mudguard fitted? I've had a trawl through the forums and as far as I'm aware people with this tyre size have modded mudguards/YZF front ends rather than stock.

I'm looking at doing this to mine - coupled with a 4" FZR rim this means I could then fit Bridgestone BT016s (had great fun on these on previous bikes). But I would rather leave the front mudguard fitted as well.

If it makes any difference mine is the twin disc 1999 model.

Other tyre options are Contigo's or Roadriders (been warned off the latter on account of cold/wet grip levels).

Cheers peeps!

Jim
