I'd agree that U might have read most. I doubt if U've read all the post on going to a + rear tire in here..
It would help if U posted what Ur rear stock size is, We in here don't know what all the different bikes have.. and what size are U wanting to go to...
thinking U have a 130-80-16 this is what I've found.????

I looked it up and it looks like a MU 85-16 is 5.51 in wide in the 402 rear touring..
the E3 MU90b-16 is 5.57 wide
the gt501 is in the 140-90 is 5.60wide..
