Brand new Rear Pirelli Diablo strata.
This is new and never been on a bike. Its a 190/70/17. These tires rock on a 12 and get you at least 2500 to 5000 miles out of a rear tire... Its sticky and never did I feel that I was uncomfortable with this tire... 100 bucks plus shipping... Thanks

Just double checking the size...190/70? Last time I saw a size like that it was an old roadracing slick.

Saw a 170 the other day...an oddball tire size but should be fine with 5" wheels. I think the CBR 600 F3 was a 5", F2 was a 4.5". I had a 170 on a 4.5" F2 wheel, looked fat but didn't handle the greatest. It should go on a 5.5" rear wheel w/out any clearance issues. Then again I have a 180 on my zx12 6" wheel....
The YZF600R takes a 160/60 but a 170 should go on fine too.
