Tire size question On 1986 Yamaha XT350

[JohnRaven.exe]

Hi all. I have a question... In my manual (Clymer) it says the rear tire is a 110-80-18. But the one on there now (I got this bike used) Is a Dunlop 120-90-18.

Now, since 110-80-18's don't seem to be very popular... Will a 120-90-18 work? Or should I just get a 110-80-18?

I'm looking at a Pirelli Scorpion Pro All-Terrain MX/Enduro Tire.

And if that would work...does anyone here have any experience with them?

Thanks!

I went with a 110/100 -18 K760 Trak Master II. Works great. Bigger than stock also, but it fits fine.

im pretty sure a 120 is wider,and 90 is taller
it depends on the distance between the swingarm and tire if you can go with the 120
sure you can go to a 90
you might need to move the tire all the way back,and add some links to the chain for clearance-if its a wide knobbie style
