No you do not need a wider front tire

yes you can swap it.....
what ever reason you want to justify it.....i can't for the life of me think of one

ya just need to make captive spacers
and probably a spacer for the rotor
and probably a caliper bracket
and ya might(probably) lose the speedo drive

anything can be done
a whole lot cheaper if you don't pay others to make custom one off parts.


or

buy a 120 for the front.....reason being????? see above?

yeah it will fit
yeah it will be pinched on the rim
yeah it will probably rub on the fender
yeah it will cost more than a 110

what reason do you want it?   I can't think of any good ones.....
