Yep your right there Bikie, 140's and 150's fit, it's just down to your preference now mate (:

I got a 140 on and it is literally 1mm from my chain guard. So to put a 150 rear on you would have to ditch the chain guard. But if your bike is capable of taking passengers (it is) then it is illegal i have been told.
