Title: XBR rear wheel size?
Post by: Moto63 on September 03, 2025, 01:28:29 PM

As the title suggests. Please can anyone out there in TC land give me the rim size of a Honda XBR 500 REAR wheel.
I know it’s 18inch diameter, I just need to know is it 1:85 or 2:15?
Thanks in advance 👍
Michael

I've just had a quick look at the manual and it doesn't say. However tyre size is 110/90 so I would expect 2.15.

Ian… you’re bang on with the 2:15 sizing. So if it was an educated guess, well done. Oh and thanks for posting 👍
I had just found out but thanks anyway
Cheers, Michael
