Hello Gentlemen.
Been quiet for a long time here and recently bought a KTM 390, life has been all about revving now
Awesome ride.
So I finally get to work on the AVL peacefully, without the worry of being stranded for the commute to work.
Some things in line are a paint job for the fenders, headlamp nacelle(started chipping paint), new luggage rack, checking the valves and cams and the title of this post, tires.
The options with 19" wheels are really pathetic here in Bangalore and hence pondering on the thought of switching over to 18" ones.
What kind of a change would this usher in?
Would it be good to go for a different sprocket and chain?
I am not the type who would wants to pop wheelies or do drag races. I need good throttle response throughout the mid range and perhaps a cruising top end of about 65mph - a touring machine.
Suggestions would be very helpful..
