Not sure why you would want to take an excellent handling moto like the HM and put a wide tire on it that will negatively effect its handling but to each his own. I owuld guess a 190 might fit without modification but would possibly rub in on wanted places maybe. This is not a mod that I've seen anyone do on here.

Maybe if you are drag racing............but I don't think that was the intended purpose of the HM...........

I was being sarcastic. I don't think the Hyper needs anything wider.

I'm thinking of replaceing the shock with a metal strut so it'll be a "ridged"
and then replacing the forks with a "springer front end" that'll be the ticket!!
I'm talking BAD ASS!! LOL Alex
