Default Will Pirelli Supercorsa Pro's 120/70 17's fit?

hi all, Iam totally new to this site so please be patient

I have the chance of getting Pirelli Supercorsa Pro's 120/70 17 front and 160/60 17 back for very much cheapness. Will the 70 section at the front fit a 2000 Sv650s and/or go with this rear tyre?? also any ideas on handling with this set up?

cheers in advance!

Hi Mate-yes they will fit-you probably won't notice any difference, might make your speedo a bit more accurate.

Speedo'll be nearly accurate in fact If it was me, I'd slide the forks through the yokes a little to compensate for the higher front (about 12mm is the rise, but I'm not sure how far you can move the SV forks without hard parts hitting... More than that I reckon but check first!

Ex race tyres i assume? IF so then look at my other post about the compounds you posted.

If it was me i'd be using a diablo 3 tryes instead of the sc's
