Default 250 ninja tire choices

greetings,
besides oem i'm having a really hard time finding my buddy a set of good tires:
the sizes are 100/80/16 front and 130/80/16 rear

all i see is oem replacment. i would feel especially bad if he tried to keep up on the twisties and failed. really we have seen 140 sizes 130 sizes 90 tall and 70 but i keep telling him it might upset the handling but so far i have been very little help.

if any of you ride different sizes with like say 100/90/16 front please let us know if it has spoliled the handling in the least bit.
thank you,
regards,
m.ad.

Metzeler/Pirelli often have different sizes available - I would highly advise sticking with the stock tire sizes though.

This is a GREAT general motorcycle forum but if you have ANY

and I mean ANY question reguarding a ninja250 visit ninja250.net , ninja250.org, ninja250.com, ninja250.info

Ninja250.net is the forum website

I just purchased a Pirelli MT75 (100/80-16) from Motorcyclesuperstore.com (about $63 shipped)

I would recommend no other tire
