Inner tube close enough?

10 Apr 2006 19:41

Rear tire: 110/90/18

Original kaw tube: 350/375/410-18

Replacement tube: 3.25/3.50/19 TR-4

This replacement rear tube should be ok, right? It seems reasonably close to me. Or should I get a closer match?

If that is not a typo (the /19 part), then I sure wouldn't use it. 19" tube in a 18" wheel is not a good idea, and tubes are pretty cheap.
And blowouts get expensive (and sometimes painful).

Nope, the 19 isn't a typo. I was wondering if I would be ok with it. Hard to find stuff around here. I'll do some more digging I guess.

Doing a little better at sourcing parts now that I've figured out were the bear shits in the buckweat, around here. Have a 350/400/18 coming in tommorow.
