Default Double Dark

Who out there is running Double Dark (Rear tire on the front) and what size / type of tire are you running up there? On my old bike I ran DD with a Battle Ax 45, 150 series tire with no problems at all. Now my Indy is telling me that a 150 series tire won't fit on my 2018 CVO Limited So tell me what you got...

It's a shame this subforum was moved into the deep shadows with the sidecar folks. Makes sense though, we are clearly a menace to society.

What did you figure out for double dark?
