I only have two sets. MIGHT consider selling the third set if someone wants all three. I will post pics tomorrow, but these are in great shape and are easily acceptable to run on any bike.

All are 120 fronts and 190 rears...

$100 a set. $175 for two sets and $225 for all three...

I ASSumed the rears were 50s not 55s.

I have zero changes done to my suspension from the factory setting to give you a baseline of what I know about set up. What are your thoughts on running 55s on a 50 stock bike?

Would handle a shit pile better... Quicker turn in essentially... However, the issue MIGHT - MIGHT be that it will adjust the trail and cause the bike to handle slower if raised in the rear. An idea - we lower the rear ride height and raise the front in an effort to add trail.

But, the tire is the same profile everyone at the track uses. I would say that if there needs to be a change, it is easy as pie. However, I suspect that you have stock components and will tend to think the change will be better... The stock rear shock is non adjustable correct? In terms of ride height...

I've been running 55s on my CBR for 3 sets now. The change was positive with quicker turn ins as said. They will give you about 3% taller gearing than stock though. Going down a tooth in front with the tire change will give you about 3% shorter gearing than stock.

dropping a tooth in the front with this taller rear tire isn't 3%. Dropping a tooth in the front is like adding 3 in the rear. A 55 rear vs a 50 rear is nowhere near that kind of change...
