120/70 yes

180/55..this is a sv650 right? then probably not. what size rim is on the back?

Would that be somewhere on the rim I can look? If so, I can step outside & take a quick look.

a 180 won't fit on the stock rear rim. a 170 might.

if you want to run a 180 or 190, do the GSXR swap. Talk to Arrah Arrah, I know he did it to his SV.

shes got a 170 on there, but she was getting a sweet deal on some pp take offs. doin the swap is probably a bit much just to get a deal on a set of tires lol

right, but 180s are more common, so swapping it out may be more benificial in the long run
