Tyres...

Hey people

Had pirelli sport demons on my cbr250 RR cause I didn't hink I could get diablo's for it ( Guy at shop told me). Had to get a new rear and infact discovered I could get them so had one fitted. Sux I only had a sport demon fitted to the front a few weeks ago so it doesn't need replacing yet.

How will these run together. It seemed fine last I rode it but wanna be sure. Front is a 110/70/17 and rear is 150/60/17. Note different profiles.

Cheers

Hi, you should really have a 140 on the back. Better handling than a 150, and its not like the cbr is gonna wheelspin on a 140.
If you want top sticky tyres next time i suggest trying Dunlop GPR A10s. They are a new road legal race tyre and made especially for small capacity sports bikes for racing/track days. They do come in the proper sizes to fit your CBR

Hope this helps

Different profiles not a problem. 70 front will give quicker turn in.

hmm yea I read that after I put it on. However it seems to handle really well as my first propped ride I got my knee down for the first time without actually trying to. Will see how it goes next ride I guess
