Is a 21" front tire better than a 19" front tire?

Episode Summary: What if the right tire could transform your off-road motorcycle experience? Join me, Bret Tkacs, as I explore this question alongside fellow rider Bill, who is debating between a BMW 1250 GSA with a 19-inch wheel and a Triumph Rally Explorer with a 21-inch wheel. Together, we dissect how these choices impact performance on rugged terrains like gravel and rocks. We delve into how tire size affects bike suspension and handling for riders of different physiques. The journey doesn't stop at tires. We also explore the challenges and joys of choosing the right off-road motorcycle, with a special focus on large adventure bikes like the BMW GS and Triumph Tiger. As we discuss the need for modifications, such as stock suspension adjustments and custom handlebars, you'll gain a better understanding of how to enhance stability and comfort on rugged terrains.
