The subtle differences in profile are designed to work best as a pair. I've seen plenty of folks riding with different tires from front to back.
I would say it will effect how your biek handles.... adversely maybe? you are gonna be the judge of that when you are on it.
I don't plan on mixing.

Run em you'll be fine.
Maybe Rossi or Giberneau might notice but your not going to!!

haha jsut kidding
anyway i just wasnt sure, they arent the same but how dfferent are they
I have no idea about the tires you have, but most problems that arise from running two different tires is when the compounds arent the same. If your front warms up a lot quicker than the rear, or the other way around, thats when bad things happen. If the only differences between the two tires is the profile, i wouldnt worry about it at all.Quote:

The power and sport are close enough that you won't have any problems.
