that looks like a pretty aggressive street tire. Bummer they don't make more in that size. Would be nice to have a little bit taller tire that is meant for the 4" rim.
Maybe time to update the registration on the bike too?

Gonna think about any offroad-like tires?

Convert the CB1100 into a scrambler configuration?

For offroad like tires for the rear,
whatever's avail for the adv bikes (in 150/70-18)
will fit the cb's 18 x 4 rim & clear the swingarm.

I'm not looking to convert my cb into a scrambler, just wanted a tire to keep me going when the pavement ends.
This STR tire is working out great so far.
