I can certainly notice a 9.5mm lift in the rear going from a 190/50 to a 190/55 as it’s not just the height difference, it also changes the feel and shape.

I’ve run a few 200/50 and 200/55’s but always gone back to a 190/55.

9.5? oh you mean the difference in diameter? wellllll.. doesn't quite work like that, how high the bike is raised by a larger tire works off of the radius, so basically half of your 9.5 =D

you're right though, a more pointy tire tips in easier. i've tried many, on my yamaha R1M.

back on topic.. does anyone else think its weird that suzuki does things like that one-touch start button function, but doesnt have any provision for switched/ignition-hot 12v power? even my yamaha had a plug that you had to dig out from under the fairings and it provided easy 12v power.

all the stuff ive seen people run on this bike (gps or whathaveyou) was just powered off of a line that was run straight to the battery.

He said a 9.5mm lift/taller, and that the difference in shape changes the feel when handling(which it does).
You can find 12v in the Gen3 tail too.

No. Not diameter. The difference between 50% of 190 and 55% of 190. It’s not the radius it’s the sidewall. The 50 / 55 is the spect ration best visualised as a %. Adding 5% of 190 lifts the rear 9.5mm from the sidewall. The 50-55 isn’t the tyres radius, it’s the sidewall so no need to half it. It’s a view of the sidewall in a single spot.

If you are suggesting the 50 to 55 mod raises the rear less than 5mm you are incorrect.

This is the connector your looking for under the seat cowl.
My pigtail plugs right into is giving you a ignition switched 12v power and ground wire.

Keep in mind it's a 2-3amp maximum circuit, so great for dash cams, phone charges and other small things.
