Does anyone know if a 200 rear tire will fit under a 2012 Vision Tour?

A 195 car tire will so depending on how tall the 200 is it is a possibility. After having ridden darkside for a year I just put a set of Bridgestone Goldwing tires on the Vision and the 'stone is pretty fat. I debated going with the lower load index tire for the rear but I love the way the bike handles, it actually seems to steer just a little slower than the E3's and less of that fall into every corner feel.

Are you talking like a Hammer tire?  I don't know if anyone tried it, and I don't know if you can do a straight swap from the Hammer to the Vision.  My guess too, you'd have to switch the wheel as well.   Sound like some 'sperimenting is in order.

What would be the benefit?
Going to corner badly.
No one will see if its bigger or not cause no one bends over to look.
Makes me think you one that doesn't read there owners manual.
