    81 250r Front tire

    Hi Guys!
    The original tire still holds air but shows signs of cracking and dry rott. I was wondering what would be the best tire choice for it. I would really like to go with a lower profile tire and see if the handling improves.

    Thanks in advance for all your input.

    Low profile is NOT the way to go as the bike was originally designed in part to rely on the balooness of the tires in helping out the limited suspension. I would just put another Dunlap 22x11 knobbie on there or perhaps a Kenda Scorpion. Alot of the old racers used to use the old off set knob Turf Tamers on the front - but I'm not sure if they are made anymore (Im talking the older baloon type, not the newer flat style).
