Bridgestone Trailwing in a 130 rubbed a little in the rear on full compression. No problem though. Riley A15 Riley Montreal aumccrd1 wrote:

Did you mean 130/90? I have used two different 130/90's on an A14 with the stock exhaust and I've had no problems. Never tried 140/80.

OK guys, I can see it now, a whole herd of URAL riders or MZ dual sporters at Moab next year. I'm actually serious here, as even though I will not get rid of the KLR (on my second) I have always wanted a URAL with sidecar just for grins.... don't rule it out. Keep us posted Gino, and GOOD LUCK!!!!! MNRon

Maybe because I now have some wear on the rear or maybe it was all in my head from the beginning. To answer your question though, no rubbing at all.
Let us know how the larger front works out, if you chose to give it a try Joe S.

I m running the 140/80 rear but stuck with the stock size in front. Rear works fine. I did notice a small seat of the pants change in gearing. I put the 15 tooth front sprocket back on after the change. Just put the 16 tooth back on this past week for a road trip and didn t seem to notice the same change in gearing. Maybe because I now have some wear on the rear or maybe it was all in my head from the beginning. To answer your question though, no rubbing at all.
