Mismatching tyres, both Bridgestone.
Ive got a Bridgestone 023 on the rear and have the same front the the bike comes with, well after to many track days i have destroyed my front and i was wondering could i but like a Bridgestone 016 on it which is a more sporty tire or would it upset the balance on the bike to much have a sport touring tire on the back

Re: Mismatching tyres, both Bridgestone.
hope you can let me know how the bridgestone 023 are getting on. As thinking of getting a set for my bike all the reviews are very good.
