For what its worth. I have just replaced my old D1 that had 020's front and back with a D6 that has 020 rear, 010 front. To be honest I cant tell the difference. They say the 010's a bit stickier but I suspect either 020 or 010 will do just fine. I can confirm the bridgestone's are a good tyre and it's all I have ever used on the ZZR1100's. An thats doing anything from town work to the over the ton blasts down the m way.
Cheers, Charlie
