    Did you check the service manual? http://www.mtsac.edu/~cliff/storage/...-SD-ED-ESD.pdf

    You could also check the parts fishe, just look up the tires for your bike. http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm

    To measure is to know.

      OK, I'll give you the answer

      RTFM! I love it!

      I also highly recommend the practice. I do it constantly. That's why I'm in the position I am today. They pay me to RTFM.

      Rear wheel = 2.50x17 Front wheel = 1.85x19
      Rear tire = 4.50v17 Front tire = 3.50v19

      The parts fiche also shows tubes.

      Would you also like to know what modern tire sizes are compatible?

      You're fortunate I'm slow at work. I don't have any computer manuals to read today.

      Thank you for your indulgence,

        In modern metric sizes, most people are happiest with 100/90-19 front and 130/90-17 rear on the 1100E.
