Default ST170 Wheel clearance question

Hi there,

Im just trying to get to the bottom of a small issue with my ST170,

Can one of you who has an ST170 on complete standard suspension and wheels measure the distance from the top of the rim to the bottom of the arch (front wheels)
this is just so i can compare other measurments to mine (i know they will all be slightly different bit its just a rough guide.

cheers all

Thanks for looking. Are you sure from the top if the rim to the bottom of the arch is only 2inches, that's seems rather low even compared to mine
