Re: [NHC] vintage track tire suggestions?
A 110/90/18 is basically the same as a 4.00/90. The TT100/K81 is still available in the UK in 4.00/18 but I'd definately put a BT45 110/90/18 on the back...or a 120/90 if the 110 was hard to get. That's what the air-cooled RD racers recommend...paired with the Avon Venom front

Re: [NHC] vintage track tire suggestions?
I put Dunlop K-81s on my RD 350 and CB 400 F back in 1975, those were the tire to have back then.
Dunlop makes a TT100, which, I am told, is the tire to replace the K-81. My RD and my CB had 3.00 X 18 front, 3.50 X 18 rear as standard equipment (probably the same size as came on the 305 Hawk you have. The CYCLEWORLD "A Step Further" article, November 1974, on hopping up the RD, said they went with Goodyear prototype tires with a 90% aspect ratio (good luck finding those) in 3.25 X 18 front, and 4.00 by 18 rear. The popular size for the K-81s was 3.60 X 18 front, and 4.10 X 18 rear, that's what the magazine guys all recommended. I swear they didn't look any bigger than the stock tires..stuck better though. I don't know if the sizing would be the same for the TT100s. James Franklin 2411 Pine Summit DR. E Jacksonville, Florida 32211 808-225-0994 (cell) From: "J. Braun" <braunj@...> Reply-To: braunj@...
