About to get a new front tyre.

Currently running a PPower 120/70, I will go to a Qualifier to match the rear so it is not brand I'm questioning as I like the Qualifiers.

I was wondering what difference a change from a 70 to 60 would make to the bike feel, turn in, handling.

2006 tuono with front forks dropped down 5mm.

I was running a 65 profile on my ZX6R that way you get the best of both worlds nice quick turn in and still nice and stable so no tank slappers

I run a 60 ..............................because it gives me room for my turbo :D;)

depends if you want more grip on big leans, the 70 will give a quicker turn in, and provide more grip whilst leant over, i personally would opt for the 70.... is there any other choice?

Everything I've found out so far it telling me to stay with the 70 so that's what I'll do. Thanks.
