I wouldnt have thought so. I just put new tyres on my VFR, and although they have improved the handling no end, the u-turns are pretty much the same. Just get a good quality one.

I changed from Dunlop to some other remolded shite from a bunch of dumplings who remould tyres in England. (Didn't respond to my email enquiry you pricks!)
The handling was drastically changed. I found out it was due to the new front tyre having a different profile to the original Dunlop.

I would ask the guy fitting the tyre, he should be able to advise.
Phone around and judge who gives the best advice, or the guy that sounds like he knows and 'wants' to help.

Not much more in it I think.
But the BCF Silverbacks aren't home from work yet, so stand-by before you buy.
