Ready to replace stock size tire on 98 flstf (rear). Want to go wider without changing belt... Your reccomendations and experiences are appreciated. Slightly wider is what I want, don't want to worry about the tire hitting the belt though. Also wondering who or if anyone is running a dual compound tire? Thanks for your time.

I use to have a 99 FB, The stock MT90 was a 130. I put a 140 Metzler on and had no issues with rubbing, even after 45k miles and 3 sets of tires. I will say the belt would just slightly rub the sidewall but only when I backed up the bike, from the belt shifting on the front pulley because of chane of direction. Hope this helps

I have read that the metzler tire is just slightly more narrow than the stock dunlops and I just replaced my rear with a metzler and will probably go to a 140 next time, but my dad had a '97 Heritage and I don't think he could of went with a 140 dunlop with that wider belt, but he may have been ok with a 140 metzler.
