Mainly looking to avoid scraping the header on the ramp into my house as well as rock clearance for the little bit of off pavement riding I find myself getting into when going somewhere new. Willing to modify the front fender to accept a taller tire. Not quite this aggressive but I like the look of the Moto Guzzi V9 bobbers with the bigger tires, pic for reference.

I've had luck with the Shinko Super Classic Tires on a past CB360 build, see photo, as they get taller without getting much wider. Trying to find something similar but more of a performance tire.

Love the look of the V9. Man, that saddle looks hard.
