RRs are difficult to keep properly hot on the road, good for track use though, forgotten now but 207GPs were good and steer sharp.
ZX6s go well on 'plain' 207s, still a benchmark tyre even after a few years, more grip than most of us mere mortals can use and suit a ZX perfectly, avoid 208s your bike will steer funny, they stick though.

Possible I 'spose, you'd would have to try back to back to see I imagine, my guess stays the same though, from experience I know you have to use the RRs quite hard to keep them hot enough in the wet.
Also whilst they aren't over sensitive to pressures, if you were to fiddle with them and see if you can get the carcass to flex a bit, it might keep them warmer, go easy though. Really they're the wrong tyres for a road bike in the wet.
