Has anyone fitted a 200 profile tyre to their Tuono V4 and did it make any difference to any aspect of the ride-ability.
I am coming up for a tyre change and there is an option to be able to fit a 200/55 ZR17 Pirelli to the rear.
I used to own a ZX12R which also used a 200 rear as standard. Although other ZX12R owners often put 190s on because of more available choices of tyre I stuck to the 200s.
The ZX12R handled very well on the standard set-up/my capabilities.... (I did have the bike sideways on occasion but there were no rider aids or traction control so I can't really blame the tyre grip.)
If nothing else, it was a novelty at the time to have a tyre on a bike which was wider than most car tyres.
