However, I prefer a 70 - even it's psychological.

A racers head is as important, if not more important than anything else on the bike etc.

Hey dom..
When i took the bike to cadwell for the first time(last year) it was running the 60 profile front and found it to be terrible under brake's/turn in.....wallowed like a pony!!!!

I Think it all depends on how you brake/turn/ lean????
If you brake full on into a turn i think a 70 profile is a must....
If you do all your braking before turn in then a 60 should be ok providing youv'e not loaded the front up to much??
