200 Rear Tire
Has anyone tried to put a 200 size tire on the stock rim and swingarm? Maybe not really worth it but just thought it'd be something different than stock.

Try doing a search but I'm pretty sure they fit. Handleing will suffer though.

It will work, but I think you will have to loose your rear huger? Also I would run a 190/55/17 it’s the best of both worlds, bigger look "taller" and the best contact pack over all.

 My Mich. Pilot Road II looks a lot wider than the same size Perralli Diablo, and seems to have a much broader contact patch - you have to just about scrape the pegs to get rid of the chicken strips, whereas the diablo's disappear on the first sharpish coupla corners .

I had 200 on mine. No clearance problem and handling problems neither. I still took corners better than most of the Gixxer guys with 180s and 190s

I'd stick with the 190. I had a 200 on mine and went back to the 190 seem to have better handling and isn't much of a diff width wise just by looking.
