I measured the tire the best I could and it is a lil difficult to get an exact measurment with how the projection of the tire is when mounted up but it appears to be about 177..Give or take a cpl at best..Hope this helps !!!

Flexx can you post a pic of the tire from the rear? I may go this route till I get the funds worked up for a Heartland Kit. The only thing I hate about my Deuce is the rear fender. Thanks

RE: 180 Rear Tire on Deuce
Hey all. I have been reading through this forum very carefully over the past few weeks. It is interesting to me how different each of use have experienced the various parts and the approach.
All I can say is that I am very, very particular about what I do with the bike. I just put the Dunlop SE 180 tire on my 2004 Deuce and it looks HOT. No big tire kit or adjustments were needed AT ALL! Don't waste your money on it, just find a good shop to do it if you don't trust yourself. I love it and it's a great interim step for me before I do the big fatty with some hot rims, etc.
Ride safe.
