Kevin,
I like fat tires on a Loop to go along with the fat sheet metal. I think it
looks cool. But are fat tires OK, that is are they stock? And, do they
allow the bike to handle well on the road? Just wondering as I am reading a
lot of opinions on the list tonight and I don't know lots about tires but I
know the look I want.
Thanks, Bob Hawkes

On my 71 I run Avon Roadrunners. 110/90 on |
