I doubt you'd notice. The difffernce is so slight. There are a lot more choices for a 120/70 but the 120/60 can be cheaper

Not a lot.
Maybe 120/70 is worse for picking up stones under mudguard on stock bike. I preferred 120/70 on storm STs, but other tyres 120/70 is actually a /60 when you measure anyway. Not a lot of difference, you can shift a bit on stock sizes fine.
