Question about tires and/or rear rim options
06/01/15 at 06:42:37

So, I take my bike fishing a lot and end up riding on dirt roads quite a bit. I am looking into putting knobbie dual sport tires on but I can't find any made for a 15" rim. So the question is do any of you know of a 15" knobbie tire or is there a 16" time that can go straight onto the bike without problems. The bike is a 2001 ls650.

The tires you use can be tube type or tubeless....doesn't matter as long as you use a tube.
