[QUOTE="Old Guy Too Many Bikes, post: 200365, member: 15440"] Yes, but the Monkey tires have an aspect ratio of 90. I'll have to see what's available when my tires are worn out. By the way, did a nice 60 mile ride with my son on his '21 Monkey. We even swapped bikes for a about 10 miles. The clutch and shift action seems lighter on the 5 speed. At 45 mph the 5 speed also a bit smoother, due to lower rpm I guess. In a drag race to 50 it was a dead heat. The main difference, though was how much softer the shocks are on the older bike. Made the seat on the new bike seem more comfortable and makes you sit a bit higher. Father and son motorcycle rides, doesn't get much better than this. Finished the day with 798 miles on the odo.
