Motorcycle / Dirt Bike questions....[views:1507][posts:8]____________________________________ [Feb 18,2008 2:58pm - Kinslayer ""] I have a Loncin dirt bike and recently popped my tire...this is the first time I've had to replace the innertube and I'm confused... I need to replace the front inner tube and the tire says 1.85x21 in one spot and 2.75-21 on another spot... I understand that I need a 21" tube/tire but what width? 1.85 or 2.75? Note above that one has an x between the number and the other has a - (dash)...not sure if that matters... any of you do work on dirt bikes? |
