Hi Ian, you need to make your way back here, positivley tropical @ 8 degrees.

Can't see any reason why a 150/70-17 should'nt fit, just have to check when on full suspension compression.

To get a better response to your questions, click into the Africa Twin forum, just click forums top right then select Africa Twin, it's the first one.
Then click on "new thread" top left and type your question.
Lots of expertise here and many people happy to help.

Good luck with your trip.

Welcome, soon-not-to-be-gixxermark!

Hope you got to Rhondda but don't worry if you missed it: the members round there are out most weekends. Keep an eye on the ride-out threads, join in the banter and they'll tell you where and when to meet.

Welcome to the forum
A Vara to an Africa Twin, unusual way around, as for the XR6r I believe there is an ointment for that.

Petrol? And a match? And an insurance policy?
