I would try to find one ore similar bike to ride before you invest the money. I road 1 bike with the big tire in back and did not like the handling at all. So no vote for me but the bikes sure look nice with a fatty in back.

I was considering going to a 200 tire on the back
I wonder how that would alter the handling ?

and you could put that on with the stock swingarm understand it?

Not sure how a 240 would handle but I run a 200 series on the back. Handles just fine and fits great.

200 series:

2012 ZX14R, 2016 BMW S1000XR

I had a 200 wide tyre on my 08 model. I found it turned in/ handled better than the 190, had to modify the hugger slightly to accommodate the tyre. Not sure if you would notice the difference visually. The ZX tail piece makes all tyres look a little small.lol
