ok so the time has come for me to buy some new tires. my back is 3.50-18 and the front is 3.00-19. thats where the problem lies, i have no problem finding tires for the back but the only tires for the front that size are knobby and i want dual sports so they last longer on the street. i was wondering if anyone knows where i can find tires that size or if a different thickness makes a difference. thanks
 
Originally that bike came with tires that were called "trials tires" in 1975. The first link is what these tires look like.

This link has a 3.50 X 19 dual sport tire.

You may have to compromise on size, or tread pattern to get to get a tire that will fit your needs. Keep searching the net, there are lots of products out there, just take some time to find it.

btw - If you know your rim width (WM 2, etc...) that is another way to find a tire that will fit.
