Hi guys, started to get down and dirty with my TZR 125, as its all new to me I got a couple of questions -

The tyre sizes in the Haynes give as 90/80-17 on front and 100/90-18 on the back. Wanting to replace them both at some stage, but every time I search for tyres to fit it comes up with the back size as being a "front" fitment. Is this the norm for a 125? And is it possible/worthwhile to fit a bigger tyre on the rear?

Many thanks in advance!

Sound ma man, any chance you could ask if he's come across it before, and what size he would recommend?

Think i'd be more confident on the corners if i had matching decent tyres and more beef on the rear.

PS, whats his shop called and where is it?
