You are correct Lemontree those are the exact size that I used and we had to flip the front tire in a backwards direction being that it is a rear tire to mimic a front tire pattern and it performs just fine and the handling is unreal with the big knobby tires you don't even have to lean as much lol it almost does the job on it's own on sharp turns and No need to lean hard. Tire clearance wasn't an issue at all I highly recommend these tires not only for looks but more for performance either for street or off road.. and very smooth with no vibration..

Prior to 14 they registered to 140, in 14 they dropped to 120.

or are you saying it would go no faster than 110? which would make sense due to the speed limiter kicking in.

Yes the top speed only goes up to 110mph and we are trying to figure a way to trick the system... the speedo top speed reads 120mph but I know for sure it has more power to reach 140+mph especially with my mods that I have but will see what happens ..

Hello, can I ask if you are running tubes in these tyres?

RE: custom cafe racer cb1100
Cormanus, did you know you can get the ECU flashed to remove the upper speed limit and it also tunes the A/F ratio, timing and can raise the RPM limit?
