Its usually "ok" to go up a size... 150>160.. check clearance on each side of the wheel against swingarm and as long as thats clear you should be fine... may affect the handling slightly..

Yep, will go straight on.
I always changed my tyres to 160 rear fitment on my 400s, as there was so much more to choose from.

Pirelli Diablo's are the way to go.

thank you all for your comments! has really helped me out!

i loved the battle axe i bought new in febuary, gave me so much confidence on first *big bike* but 4500 miles later its on the wear indicator, have not wheel spun at for the record Razz
im gna be a sinner and sling a part worn on and then save for next battle axe bit by bit, (apprentice pay no good for running two bikes)
