Tire width
Another attraction of Byson-compared with its competitors in its class-wide are used tires. 100/80-17M front and rear 120/70-17M, both tubeless.

Wheels too wide. 2.5 front and rear 3.5 inches. This form allows you to use wide tires. "For the modification, the tire can be enlarged up to 110/70 (front) and 140/70 (rear)," said Manager of Technical Support Services Division YMKI Abidin Muhammad.
