I agree there.  Also, I wouldn't buy the fattest tires that fit, as some people do.  They may make your bike look bigger and badder but they mess up the turn handling.  I installed the factory-recommended rear tire on my CB750 and, even though it looks pretty slim, it actually accelerates, turns and stops great.

There is a chart somewhere in the forum.  I would not spent alot of money
on tires for these bikes.  I don't think they can benifit from very stickey
tires.  Probably cause you to over ride the frame.  Just my thoughts.
