I measured mine up for a 190(haven't done it yet only because my tire is still good). I wish the photopost was up, I'm aroused by the description of your bike.

Metzeler has a 200/70/15. its will fit but you have to remove the chain guard.

i know some people that have done this mod to there bike.. but so you know to put that big of tire on thr rear of our bike you really need a new rim.... 200/70/15.. should use a rim of 5.50 to 6.50 yes i know you can put this size wheel on the stock rim of only 3.50.. but when you do that you lose your contact patch .. here is a link to the metzeler fitment chart.. web page Ed

Thanks!
I've seen those, I'm looking for a picture from behind with either a 190 or a 200.
