Default Mis-Matched Tyres

My bikes going in to get it's rear tyre (Pilot Sport) swapped this week for a Road Attack. The front will still be a Pilot Sport as there's still loads of miles left in it.

Is there anything to be aware of when running 2 different tyres? I wouldn't have thought so but didn't see any harm in asking!

Default Re: Mis-Matched Tyres

Not too much of an issue (although tyre places will tell you otherwise ) and if having slightly mixed tyres it's better to have the front stickier than the rear apparently, which appears to be true in your case.
