I'm new on this forum...hello all.
I got a 2011 KLX250 D-Tracker in Thailand, it's wheels are the same size/width as 09 onwards.
it's running the stock IRC road winner (110-70-17 & 130-70-17), I want to replace them with Pirelli sport demons & my local dealer in Thailand (tire options here are very limited) can only order 110-70-17 front which is good but the the rear is only available as 140-70-17.......Now i've done oversize tires on other bikes coz they look better & f#cked up the handling! Is this 140 gonna be ok?? as this bike handles so well on the twisty mountain roads of Phuket. As it's a little under powered compared to some, the handling is very important to me.
Thx
