What are you running on the front of your Big Red

[bubboyce]

I just bought a '83 200E and Honda doesn't sell the factory front tire any more. I'm looking for something that fits correct but also doesn't look stupid! My buddy bought a Honda one last year and this year they are discontinued!!

25x12x9 is the size I need and price isn't really an issue, fit is!

Thanks for the help!

For the front I like OEM or something very similar to it. The main reason being, is that they are skinny enough not to hit the forks when in mud and such. Some of the other 25x12x9 tires are much wider and therefore end up rubbin your fork sides.

Scott,

I share the same sentiment as you with regards to Honda tires. I unfortunately have no access to a Honda tire anymore so what's next?

Are any of you running something else that you really like?

[ScottZJ]

Well service honda still sells the OEM big red tires for a good price, but if you are out of the US, then that might not work for you. You can also try the CARLISLE Trail Wolf as they have similar design and are a skinny type tire.

They sell tires for a 250 BR but not the 200 BR. I'm in the states but Honda supposedly doesn't sell these any more. If anyone knows different or has a used Honda 25 12 9 front tire for my 200E, I'm interested.

The trail wolf looks pretty good.

Wifes 200M is running 25" shens all the way around. Its like a monster truck! I love it. Completely decimates any and all vegetation in its way.

New BR is same size as old BR!!!! Honda has one on it's way for me!!

Skanky bike with sweet tires!!!

There are people on this site that know a heck of a lot more about ATC than I but, I bought this tire for my front tire. They look good on my 1985 Honda 250es Big Red.
