Tyre size

[markla]

Hi all, I have been offered a spoke wheel twin disc which i have been trying to find like forever its in good condition.

my only concern is the tyre on the side it says 100/90x 19 my question is this the tyre on my bike is 3.25x 19 will i be able to put a 3.25 on the spoke wheel or if not will my gs750 take a 100 size tyre assuming 100 = 4inches. I got a feeling the wheel might be off a gt i will be asking this when i see the fellow at the weekend.

Thanks in advance,Mark.

A 100/90-19 will fit just fine.

Bonus time: the extra circumference also eliminates most of the speedometer error.

Thanks steve, if i want to put a 3.25 size tyre on this wheel will it fit and not be any cause for concern.

Edit i,ve just looked on a tyre conversion chart all is ok.

Just need to find a rear wheel in this condition and i,ll be a very happy chappie.

If anyone in the UK got a 18inch rear wheel single disc in good condition let me know there are one or two in the USA but shipping charges are eye watering plus import duties but if i get desperate then needs must.
cheers,Mark
