120/70-12
120 is the width in mm.
70 is the aspect ratio for sidewall height, 70% of the width.
12 is the wheel diameter.
Width and wheel diameter are straight forward. Gotta remember that since the aspect ratio is a percentage of the width, a 120/70-12 would be taller than a 100/70-12.

So now I'm a lil confused with the 70 % of the height part I mean I understand what your saying but not sure what size to go with suggestions? Maybe 110/60/12?I need something a lil less wide and less tall! But if I try and stretch my 100/60/12 on that it will be too low of a profile tire. |

  Found a shorter adjustable shock put it on and it dropped the rear about 1.5-2in I think it helped level it out and rides a little better I'm not sliding forward on my seat now but I need to figure out how to paint the ugly yellow to match the bike. Is there a trick to taking them apart or can you? |

Is there a trick to taking them apart or can you? I've always just wrapped the inside of the shock with tape through the spring and then painted it. I've used a washer on the rear axle to space the rear tire to fit a wider tire. |

Best believe it will be on display somewhere if nothing but a paper weight since that's all it will be used for. But the manager of the shop wants it to show to customers why he recommends not using high octane lol |

I need some help guys I been trying to find a reasonably priced slip on header with no luck on eBay and only one I've seen for the 50cc without getting the whole exhaust system is through monstergy6 for $145 or so. Doesn't have to be anything too fancy maybe one of you guys have a used one laying around and maybe willing to part with

That helmet doesn't look very safe. At least get one with a chin strap so you don't lose it.  |
