    Gonna be tough finding em in a 150. They don't go that small anymore.

    All the EX500 guys at the track scooped em up like hotcakes when that news came out. When Joey Dunlop ran out they started running 160's.

    I was seeing this the end of last season. It's a PITA to run a 160 on an EX too. Warmers become a PITA, people were hammering swingarms... general nonsense. I'm going to be trying the pirellis this year because of it.

    Thanks, yes, Pirelli makes a Diablo Supercorsa rear in a 150/60-17.

    Don, I'll PM you with pricing.
