Default Road King Rear tire

What's the widest tire I can put on the rear of my 2000 Road King? Stock it's a 140.

actually stock is a 130 from the factory, on my 03 anyway. most folks go to a 140 for their first new tire. Thats the widest you can run without some type of modification like the possible removable of the belt guiard which is not recommended.

Agreed with NCDan. I run the "MU" E3 tire and it seems a bit wider then than the stock Dunlop 140, but that's about it.
