18"

=========================================
I have that set up on my bike now, I went from two 18's to an 18 in front
and a 16 in the rear. the 130/90-16 is almost the same overall hight a the
120/90 - 18, but it is fatter.
 Other than a little less ground clearance, the differance is not noticable
to me. I believe the C.H.P. specified that arrangment on there bikes.
 If you want to get rid of the 16 in front, let me know what you want for
it.
