I believe the 130/90/17 is the closest in diameter. That's what I'm running on mine, backwards D404.

Height of tire from bead to tread;

Front stock
150/80HR-17 120mm

130/90-17 117mm
140/80-17 112mm
140/90-17 126mm
150/70-17 105mm
160/70-17 112mm
150/90-17 135mm (but I have no idea if it will fit).

I have the D404 130/90-17 bias rear on now and like it. Photo is at 17K miles.

If I can find one in 140/90 I might try it to make the speedo more accurate.

Thank you PhredValk. That chart is zackly what i needed. I've found the D 404 as low as $100.95 at Bike Bandit. But with that size chart i can check some other options. RIDE SAFE.
