    Order Time! What front tire for my Big Red?

    So what front tire should I get for my Honda 200e? I ride mostly in mud and on grass trails. Any ideas?

    Get the OEM front tire for the 85-87 Big red 250es. It will look great and functions great too. You can get it from service honda at about the same price as most of these other tires.
    86-87 Tecate ROCK!

    Ride fast...........brake late............and Slide the rear!

    I recommend the ITP mudlite for the front of your Big Red for your type of riding - Reference - the guy - can't think of his handle right now but he has the "most beautiful Yahamha in Sky Blue Plastic the world has ever seen" has ITP's all around his Yammi - and I think ClayW has an ITP on the front his Big Red.

    They look real cool and work pretty good too from what I have heard.
