    It turns out I am not selling my bike. I had multiple people call to look at it and then no show, or want to trade me junk for it so, it stays and the new bike doesnt come home.

    Since I am keeping it, I need a new back tire and to get the beast inspected.

    My question (sorry for being long winded here) is can I use a 130/70/16? What would be the negative effects of this if any?

    might rub the swingarm. Actual tire dimensions for the same size vary between manufacturuers.
