Have you done it yet? How does it work out for you? replacing the 160/60 Conti, worth doing?My question was whether it fit the wheel, not the bike. I'm pretty sure it will clear the chain -not drivebelt- and swingarm.
Anyway, since I asked this question I've seen others that fit a 160/60 on the rear and it seems to qork well.
Thanks!
Many thanks! looks good. Not sure if Conti Attack is available in China...if not, can i assume the Bridgestone or any other 160/60/18 could fit? would this actually lower the bike a bit? Thx!Worth doing, on my socind now. They’re perfect.
I'm a shorty and yes the 160/60 does lower the bike a little which makes stopping easier!. I have the Conti Road Attacks too and love them.Many thanks! looks good.

What kind of mileage are ya getting out of those tires with what tire PSI? Thanks in advance
I purchased a wheel balancer, bead breaker and a lift from harbor freight. Well worth it. Get some spoons and slap on your own tires. I have nine bikes to maintain, so having the tools makes it worth it.I brought the Road Attack 3's to the dealer to get them installed last week while my dash was being replaced under the warranty. They refused to put on a different sized rear tire claiming they contacted both Indian and Continental. The 0.25" difference in wheel width was the major factor in their decision. Now I am looking for another option. I generally do all of my own modification and service, but I hesitate to purchase all of the necessary tools to replaced the tires and balance them. I am looking for a different shop to mount and balance the tires.
Two things here.With the rim width I would ask Indian dealers.
our rim is 4.25 inches,so 160/65 18 tires should also fit. the height does not change much,
it is only 0,1 cm lover than orginal tires with size 150/70 18.
Speedometer deviation is equal to 0 km/h.
What was wrong with your dash because I’m having issues with mine, everything on the far right column goes blankI brought the Road Attack 3's to the dealer to get them installed last week while my dash was being replaced under the warranty.
