ive been looking for info on the net about the standard tyre sizes for my f2 and cant find a definite answer. the reason i ask is my rear tyre is almost bald and my front is only half worn so i brought a part worn rear from a guy on here a few months ago and only just noticed its a ditterent size to the one fitted. the one on the bike is-110-90-18-61h the one i brought part worn is-110-80-18-58h
so idealy i want to know the correct size and my have to bin the part worn and buy a correct size tyre,oh there both bt45's.

Yes, Mellow is correct. If it helps convince you, I have an original owners manual and sales brochures, both quote the same size as Mellow say. Different from standard size tyres don't always screw the handling but do change the feel. I have tried larger tyres but I prefer the responsive feel of standard size.
