    22" vs 20" inch tires

    Been a while since I've played with anything sporty.Trying to decide which tires to buy for my 86 Honda 200x.Sticking with 9" wheels.Riding conditions will be about equal between sport and trail.Was leaning towards 20".To me the big gain with the 22" is top speed.What opinions do you have.

    22 is way too big for that in my opinion, at least for my riding style.

    I run 20" on everything , I go for handling and there is only 1 tooth front sprocket difference. 22" sport tires are getting hard to find at a good price also.
