Do NOT buy Heidenau tires! while they are nice, they require tubes. You have nice tubless rims. Heidenau's will not work without a tube. Ask me how I know...

I have run, Michelin S83, dunlops, and Heidenau. Go with the Michelin S83.

I got 110/80/10 Heidenaus on the rear of my monkey. Single piece wheels. No tubes..Works fine.

What kind of wheels were you running?? Maybe 2 or 3 piece wheels??

I thought 10 inchers were the smallest road legal wheels you could run. I don't see why you'd want to go down in size. You lose top speed without gearing change and wouldn't it look funny? I thought people went wider and/or to 12 inchers.

6 inch is the smallest road legal rim size I know of. Honda had a few bikes with them. Arnt gyro rear tims 6 inch, I forget.

gyro's are 8.

jogs used 8's aero's may have used 8's.

I was just saying that 10"s and 12"s have better tire choices was all. lol

85' and 86' Gyros used 6" tires on the rear.

84' Gyro used 8" tires on the rear

Honda Aeros used 10" wheels front and rear.

The tires to get are the Heidenau K61. You do not need to use tubes with those...

Dang that was fast! Got my Michelin s83 tires in today! They say "tube type" on the side. Just trying to confirm that I don't need to run tubes with these for my one piece alloy rims. Thanks guys!
