Will a 120/90H18 Cheng Shin fit OK on a XS1 ?
Seems very wide for the swing arm clearance at the moment (132mm) but it's loose not fitted, fitting to the rim may actually pull it in a little.
I really don't want to fit it tomorrow morning only to have to pull it off again.
The only other tyre I've got is a Czech Barum 4.00x18 which is narrower and 100% aspect ratio, but I know these are terrible things to a 1950's design.
I put a new one on my Honda CB550F, and it destroyed the casing in 6,000 miles
