I've seen post where riders are using the 195... but since our F6B has a 180 MC tire would not we want a 185 CT?

I was looking at the Toyo Extensa HP II, which has these options:
185/55/16 OR
195/55/16
(https://www.toyotires.com/product/extensa-hp2/)

I've got the 2014 Yellow.. F6B

Thanks everyone!

Oh I forgot this... So can a car shop mount them, I mean does there tire machines work with my rim?

Can't help you with the size question , but the tire shop I can answer....yes they can put your rim on their machine, but they need to be careful because it can slip and damage your rim.
Another thing to consider is that a lot of tire shops will not mount a car tire on a bike rim..unless you tell them its for a trike..at least that was my experience .
Mac, I live south west of you in Franklin Ohio off of I75. I would love to meet up and ride sometime.
