240 would be better if you dont want to do any other mods to make it fit.
Only problem with the 250 Dunlop is if you ever want to lower bike more than 1.5". Been a few on here that found that out already the hard way. Dunlop is the highest profile tire, Avon being the lowest. I have the Avon 250 on a 8" PM wheel and lowered 1". No problems, but I did change tailight placement configuration to accomadate the extra room needed.
I will also say there is barely any noticable difference from the 240 to the 250.
.50" wider on mine with the 250 Avon on the 8" PM Wheel as apposed to the 240 Avon on the Stock rim I had.:thumb:

Hey Wlf- Where did you get a 2" spring? L&M is 1.5" and Progressive is 1". Is there a 2" available. I might want to get one!
