Hi, I'm a relatively new to motorcycling and I bought my first set of tyres online and have made a mistake when ordering, the bike is a 98 thundercat I meant to order 120/60 and 160/60 but I mistakenly ordered 120/70 and 160/60, I'm assuming this would have a negative effect on handling, would appreciate if anyone can confirm that it would be a bad idea to have them fitted in those sizes and that I should send it back for the correct one. Thanks

Get in the queue.

But yes, don't go through the trouble of fitting the wrong tyre just because it's what you have to hand. Worst case you can eBay / Gumtree it.
