Thank you, Doc! I am back to the original wheel geometry, so I expect the Zong will handle well.
The Zong handles very well with 18-inch wheels in both front, and rear. However, I expect the lighter, taller, narrower front tire will lighten the Zong's handling even more.
I am now also very pleased to have a much wider choice of front tires.
The Shinko 244 is a very good, 50/50 dual sport tire; however, I want a more aggressive tread. I selected the Cheng Shin C858 as my first 21-inch tire, because I think it is a good tire, with a
great price. I purchased the Cheng Shin C858 tire for $21, delivered to my front door.
