I like it. Looks like Shinko makes a 2:75 and a 3:50 in 19”, but no 3:00

IRC trials on my DT400 and Heidenau k67 on the RT bikes. I’m picky about keeping original appearance. Can’t zero in on one brand for you because not all brands make all sizes :(

Did you see post #12 in this thread? Might be something there that works for you.

I just put 244s "Golden Boys" on my CT3 3.50 x 18 front and back.  I love them.

Matt they are the K262.
Good luck finding the 3.50 18, I'm looking for one for the front of my CT1-C, but the only one I can find at the moment is from Spain.
I asked M&P when they will have stock, but they can't tell me.

Thinking about tires for my 77 IT400 and wondering if anyone knows what would have been on it originally? I’ve seen reference to “Bridgestone rim savers” somewhere? Does that sound right? 

Thanks!

Until now I had never seen a 3.25-18 Kenda K262 for sale, but it seems they are now readily available in the UK.
I think they are a great tyre and give the look of the original tyres at a very good price.

Fitted new front 3.25 18 Kenda K262 to the CT3 and very happy with the look.
Both my CT1s have 4.00 18 rear and 3.50 18 front which gives them a chunky look and really feel great off-road, but in my opinion the standard sizes on the CT3 look best.
