Default Re: Which Tyre?

I've got Pirelli Diablos, which were on my bike when I got it.....very pleased with them. 120/70 on the front, 160/60 on the back......I guess that's standard

My brother just bought Continental ContiSportAttack. They warm pretty quick and grip like a vice. Look great too. If I had to buy now I'd buy them.

Ok, thanks. Handling seems fine so I guess I'll stick with what I've got

PR2's if you're happy paying for them.

In the case of the diablos, you can fit a 120/70 with no adjustments NEEDED however it's recommended you drop the bike through the forks about 11mm to keep the geometry the same..
