Re: newbie help on rear wheel please
It is how it is. The original GSXR750 had a 140 tyre too....so I doubt your VFR is going to need a larger tyre on it.
It was also designed to handle properly with the right sized tyres so I'd leave it.
Get some pics up anyway...must be a tasty bike if it fished you in so successfully!
