Hey Y'all, Can anyone tell me the biggest AVON rear tire that will a 1997 Standard? Thanks.

I had the Cobra 200/60R/16 before going Darkside.  It fit without any nutcage mods etc.   I liked the way it handled, just not the short lifespan it had.  It still had some miles left on it, but decided to not risk taking it to Inzane, so I took it off.

The Avon Cobra in a 200/60R/16 will fit the Valkyrie. Some bikes require the nutcage mod. in "shoptalk" and some bikes do not. It depends on if your fender is centered from the factory. Three Valkyrie riding buddies and myself all ran 200's, (Battle-Axe) Two of us had to do the mod. and two of us didn't.
   Don't be scared, look it up in "shop-talk" it's easy stuff. If your gonna put the tire on, I'd just do the mod. and be done with it, why mess around and come back to it?
  Those tires look great from the rear (nice and fat) and handle great too You'll love it.
      Then when you eventually try the "DARKSIDE" You'll be ready.

Hey Y'all... I tried the dark side on my 99  Valk Interstate a few years back...totally did not like it. If you like it that is cool. Just not for me. Thanks for the info. I will go to the tech board for more info.
Have a good one & ride safe. tommy t
