    my friends 650s had 160 in the rear and the tire looked tiny and took away from getting the bike lower

    was it a super sport tire? I thought it was supposed to help you get lower, I know like kawi 250 have skinny back tires, but they are shit.

    I am talking about pilot race tires or something, they come in 170 and 160.
