ttlpakg,

Here's my two cents, the 90/90 might be a perfect fit for your current fender. Be carefull, I went with a 90/90 on my bike and it was too big for a Ness Chopper Fender I had bought. Stock would fit perfect, when we tried the 90/90 the fender wouldn't fit tight with the fender, looked like a motocross fender it sat so high! You might encounter that same problem by going with a 120 70... Just a thought...

Thanks to all for the suggestions/comments.

Branner,
i will definitely keep that in mind when i go make the purchase. i havent seen how big the 90/90 is yet, so as you recommended, i have to size it up first. thanks again.

for now - i have to go take the bike out for a ride so i can wear out my front tire. that way i'll feel better when i go buy another one.

Felix,
What's up brother?

You ever get a new front tire?
I have been kicking this idea around myself as its about time to replace the one I've got.

email me at work when you have time.
