    I have the standard size 190/50/17 on the rear of my 07, I know the popular upgrade option is to go to a 190/55/17 to make for a quicker turn in.
    But I was thinking of going for either 200/50/17 or 200/55/17.
    Has anyone else gone up to the 200 section tyre on their bike and if so were the any clearance issues regarding chain/swingarm or hugger..
    As far as I can see there should be plenty of space for the extra 5mm on the tread width either side , but if anyone has some insight it's always welcome :)

    I wondered this one i must admit, i did wander how it would handle with a 200/55 on. Think there was someone on here that did it and tracked it too, said it was great?
