needing a new front tyre soon. currently on bt010's.
i was wanting to try out another tyre as my last three bikes all had the same tyres, not by choice just coincedence.
unfortunatley for me i have a near new matching rear. is it best matching up again?
i've also read different things about 120/60 and 120/70
any advice

I would not go for a different front than rear....but of cource could this be a way for all tyre companies to make us buy sets....

My dunlop qualifiers has never failed me yet....and in Sweden we have some VERY different riding conditions! From minus to 35 celsius...

If your going track they´ve just released qualifier...RR!? Cant remember name....but a more trackday oriented tyre....and if it´s stickier than the qualifier i would go 50 degrees lean angle.....and i´m a coward!!

Cheers
