Would those be sizes:
120/70R17 front (diameter 23.7 according to Avon)
150/60R17 rear (diameter 24.2)

Stock BT090:
110/70R17 (diameter 23.2)
140/70R17 (diameter 24.7)

So compared to stock, the Distanzia is 1/2" taller in front, 1/2" smaller in back, effectively raising the front a 1/4", and lowering the rear 1/4"

I am guessing you did not notice much handling changes on pavement??

Dunno yet, haven't been out on it yet. I'm waiting for new sprocket bolts. I'll post back how it feels. I expect from what I've read to drop the forks a few mm's to get some quickness back but we'll see.

And yes, those are sizes. Apparently these are the only sizes the SM compound comes in but I could be wrong on that.

...and cut that outrageously bulbous front fender down too while you're at it.

Motokid can provide the thread.

Going on feel only, I'd say pretty fast. They feel good now and just walkin around the house a bit I can feel them break in. I really want the ankle to break in for shifting.
