Ang alam ko lang advantage nyan sir is, you would be able to put wider tires compared sa 2.5 and 3.5 na limited ka lng ng 110 and 130 respectively

Sir kamusta kaya ang handling? may idea ka? Ang mga nagamit ko na kasi ay 110 at 120/ 18 sa front at 130/17 sa rear. Ok naman ang handling nya, kaya i-lean ng "medyo" aggressive. Ang concern ko lang sa wider rims/tires ay baka hindi na pwede i-lean masyado at ang kailanganin ay hang-on na dahil ang tires ay lalapad at hindi na masyado bilog? or mako-correct ito ng wider tires? Sa bigat I assume madadagdagan dahil sa mas malapad, hindi kaya mahirapan ang stock XR200 sa added weight?

Daming tanong.. More feedbacks po sana galing sa mga users ng 3.5F at 4.25R lalo na yung nag upgrade from 2.5F/3.5R to 3.5F/4.25R.

Maraming salamat

I have not tried it yet, Pero what I think is ma cocorect un mas malelean mo siya because of the wider tire's(dahil pag bilog ang goma di mo gamit ang lahat ng thread ng gulong just like what happened to my previous 120 even I lean ko siya ng todo di mo siya pwde ma sagad because bilog nga un goma)

regarding the weight now un ang di ko alam, cguro minimal lng yan.. Kay sir bob nga 150 pa gamit niya rear hehe..
