well ya could go as wide as 300 with the swing-arm kit, etc but it'd be pointless unless you're building a dragster

I don't know what you're plannin on doin.
but if you want to put a wider rear tire, you won't be able to have fun on the twisties.
A wider tire will make your bike spring up every time you try to lean.
In other words you won't be able to dump the bike in a turn like you do now.

I actually go narrower at some tracks and run a 180/55 because of the taller profile than a 190/50. The new 190/55 race tires are the bomb.

A 200 series rear will fit, but make sure to proudly display gay pride stickers on your bike when you mount it.
