Given the low horsepower and weight of the Super 8, I doubt that there would be any real problems using a front tire on the rear, but I think I'll go ahead and order the OEM rear tire.  I have been reasonably satisfied with the performance of the stock tire but it is over priced.  At least I'll have some choices when I need a front tire.  The rear tire has 8,000 miles on it and the front looks like it will last twice that long.  I was reading on another forum that the Honda PCX guys have the same issue.  There are no choices for rear tires other than OEM.  However, their rear tires are only $64.

You can use any size tire you want. .. We do that here everytime.... ;)


The rear tire of this Raider 150 is so skinny and light, it flies like a rocket....
