Double dark
Loving my dark side setup, still. Been through one Hankook rear and onto another. It’s time for a fresh front at the moment. I’m wanting to go to a 150 rear tire on the front from the current stock size 130. This is a stock 18x3.50 Airstrike wheel.
anyone made this change here? What size? What tire?

Bumping this old one. Finally getting. Around to this. Haven’t been on the bike much due to some medical issues but should be back in action in a month or so. I’m wanting to get the bike back ready to roll. New front tire, brakes, fluids etc…
looking like I’m mounting up a rear 150/70-18 on the front to go “double dark” as they say.
has anyone ran a Continental Go! Tire? I believe they’re geared toward lighter bikes in general but with a weight capacity of nearly 800lbs on the particular size I’m considering, it should do fine on the front of my relatively light touring machine I believe. The Battlax BT45 is out of stock everywhere I’ve seen or if just go with that one since it’s been pretty well proven.
I’ve always had good luck out of my Continentals on my Shovel. No reason to think this won’t be the same.
