This tire has a speed rating of "M", which is 81 MPH. The Ryker 600 is rated at top speed of 82 MPH. I NEVER will ride that fast with my 600, so it will be fine!

But also keep in mind, that tire is rated at 1,600+ pounds. Weight of the Ryker is much, much lower than that, :mrgreen:

Synonym for tyre or tire.

Haven't you ever been "all tuckered out"? :mrgreen:

The tire has an "M" speed rating, which is good up to 81 MPH. But that is based upon 1,600 pounds on the tyre. If a 300 pound ryder is on Ryker, that is less than 300 pounds on tyre. So it should be just fin & dandy for a Ryker front tyre! :mrgreen:

Apparently, when you compare a 145/R60-16 tyre with a 125/R80-16 one to each other, the "temporary spare" tire (the 125) is a full inch LARGER in outside diameter. The current (145) tyre seems pretty close to the fender as it is, but I think there is STILL enough space to be able to use it.
