I changed the 120/60 Evo on my 2002 748s for a 120/70 Rs2 while at Almeria last month.

The improvement in stability in a straight line is impressive, but for me the steering is too slow. Feels like I really have to wrestle the bike into corners compared to the 60 section front.

The tyre fitter warned me the steering would be slower, but I didn't expect by so much. He also said that dropping the forks through the yokes slightly would restore the geometry to closer to the 60s and so speed the steering up again, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet .

As it is, I will go back to 60s at the next tyre change.

You pays yer money, etc......
