Title: Virago Front Tyre Post by: Watsonic on August 11, 2008, 07:23:52 PM Can you help.? ???
I'm using a Virago 535 speedo but with a Suzuki front wheel and oversized tyre. The chance of the speedo reading the correct speed are small, however I want to find out the circumference of the original Virago tyre but as this was scrapped some time ago I don't have one to measure. The tyre size was (As quoted in the Haynes Manual) 3.00s-19 4pr.......Has any body got one, if so could you give me am accurate measurement please. Cheers Title: Re: Virago Front Tyre Post by: BikerGran on August 11, 2008, 08:25:21 PM My front on the GT550 is 19 inch - not sure about the rest of the figures..... ???
