Hi, I'm Sparks.
I converted my V92C to a trike. Trying to get info on what size front tire would be best. Right now I have the MT90B16 on, that is the stock tire. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
THANKS

Hi John, to Trike Talk and your first post
Are you not happy with your stock tire size?

Jack....Yes you are correct ' but the larger the contact patch the more steering input is needed...Thats was the OP's question...
Just for fun drop the air in your Freewheelers down to 25/30 PSI....And just take it for a ride around your block 'Or just make a U turn on your driveway..
I ride with 30 PSI in my Triglide's front tire and there is a noticeable difference in steering input just because of the larger contact patch..... Also the center treads will last a lot longer on the stock Dunlops...

Yep, you sure are right on that. I did the conversion myself. Took a while. The kit is from IMC Trike out of Goodyear AZ. Independent rear suspension like the California Side Car product made to fit the Victory. It's not a off the shelf unit. Thanks for the info on the tire. I have the rear tire which is wider as you know. When it time for a newer tire for the front I'll try it.
Thanks John
Just an update and progress report. Finally got the EGT meter hooked up and running. Now I'm trying to find out what it should read on the rear jug. Any thoughts?
We have a ‘12 Ness XCT and when it came time to change front tires, we went with a Cobra Chrome. It is made for trikes,deeper tread in the middle and less tread on the outside edges which are for lean, which a trike does little of.Be aware, it took me 4 months from the time I ordered the tire, till it came in and I could get it on! Also, they are not cheap,
