        I run a 110/90/19 on my bikes. Tight fit but helps the handling.

        These are good tires to start wit don and they won't break the bank. Motorcycle Superstore has free shipping on orders over $80 (I think) too.

            jmnjrpa has run the 140. It rubs slightly. He was fabricating a swingarm with extra clearance but I don't remember if he ever got it finished.
