Looking to go double dark, but my front tire is about shot now and my rear probably has 2-3K left in it. Just wondering what it would feel like with only a BT45 on the front and a stock rear tire.
Darkside up front only?

I doubt you will notice any difference. It is shaped like a traditional MC tire.

Thought I read somewhere that the diameter of the BT45 was slightly larger. Wasn't sure if that would be noticeable with the stock rear tire. I will go ahead and give it a try, Thanks for the input.

Yes, it is a taller tire. Well there is less clearance. Some of that would be because the tread is deeper. I doubt you will notice much difference but I should say that I don't have this tire on my bike. I don't think the cat tire is any taller of a tire. If it were it would be easier to get up on centerstand and I would say it feels the same as a MC tire from that aspect.
