a ran pilot powers on mine, 120/60 so slightly lower sidewall than youre usual 120/70 sportsbike tyres

anything round and sticky should be fine though really

if all your worried about is stunting and stoppies then i wouldnt put much thought into it as anything will work, even trail type tires. the suspension will do all the work that a sticky tire would have to on a sportbike. if your doing trackdays or trying to scrap knees or pegs on corners then i would pick something a little stickier than the average. i'll be going with a pilot power when mines beat but thats just cuz thats what im used to on sportbikes.

im rockin a DURO 130-80-17..its kinda like a trials tire..it takes a bit to break in for stable wheelies but i love the extra grip offroad and it was $38 dealer cost so i can burnout all day long for cheap!
