Title: Correct Tube size for DS
Post by: evdjerome on July 17, 2015, 11:10:25 PM

I'm replacing my 2012 DS tires with Avons.

Front: Avon AM26 100/80 V17
Rear: Avon AM26 120/80 V16

Now I'm researching tube sizes for these and it isn't clear to me what size tube I need for each wheel.

Will this work for the front?  Type: TR-4/TR-6 (8mm Valve) / Tire Size: 4.00"-4.25"x17

Will this work for the rear?  Type: TR-4/TR-6 (8mm Valve) / Tire Size: 4.25"-4.60"x16

Nevermind. Got my answer from: http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-tires-101-guide (http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-tires-101-guide)

Here's what I chose:
Front Tube: Type: TR-4/TR-6 (8mm Valve) / Tire Size: 3.25"-3.50"x17
Rear Tube: Type: TR-4/TR-6 (8mm Valve) / Tire Size: 4.25"-4.60"x16
