Nikon, if you want to do it and it's not against the law do it. However when you're doing triple figures and some ****wit retard decides to try to kill you. Do you want the only things to grip the road to be in any doubt that they'll do their job? Having had to bend the laws of physics myself not that long ago I'll stick to front on front back on back. Good luck to whichever you choose.

I know it’s hard to tell when someone is joking I appreciate one and all comments and suggestions etc. I am just trying to find the highest profile scrambler tyre for the CBF500 and for the front it’s difficult etc. I will probably end up with standard tyres but thought I’d check to see what the consensus was before I made any drastic decisions. Me and a CBF500 doing triple figures in central London ain’t ever gonna happen I’d be lucky to get up to 40mph and that’s just one dual carriage way the rest is 20mph speed limited with cameras in central London...

Does that mean you arent talking about doing this on your SV ?

If not its a bit confusing as you didnt state this in your opening post and I feel if its not strictly SV related your post would be better in Bikes Talk & Issues

Why would you put a back to front wrong sized scrambler tyre on a CBF500 for use on city streets?
Doesn't make any sense at all on any level.
