Tire size question

Last year on my previous bike, a 2005 Ninja, I had the front tire replaced with a Kenda Cruiser K671 Motorcycle Street Tire - 100/90H-16F, and it rubbed the front fender. Had to remove the fender to ride home. A week later the bike died and that was that.
My current bike, a 2007, is ready for some tires. I have read the 250 faq numerous times, and was under the impression that 100 90 16 would fit without fender mod. Was I wrong? I had the K671 rear on the previous bike and want the same for this bike, but the front sizes confuse me. Thanks

I think it depends on the particular tire. Some have a larger diameter with the same measurements. I just put a 110 90 16 on the front and just moved the fender up an inch. It was easy.
