6 inch should definately be a 190.

I had a 180 on my mag 6 inch when i got the bike and it was awful...the narrow tyre is stretched across the rim width giving a flat profile that , even though the tyre was new, it behaved like a really badly squared off tyre...snaked all over white lines/overbanding and was a sod to turn.

190 and it was transformed...the proper tyre profile.

The ideal fitment would be a 190/55, but there aren't many options in that size apart from supercorsas or the new dunlop 209 gps for example.
