OK, first I have been running with a 4.5 rear rim out of choice, basically as mine is presently only a 2v giving 86bhp max so putting the power down through a 160/70 isn't going to be an issue and I gain from the lighter rim/tyre giving a more nimble feel to the bike. Having said that I am about to change to a 5.5 rim 180/55 tyre when I fit my 1100 engine over this winter, so I'm guessing that a bit more weight & power should make getting heat into the tyres a bit easier.
I'm getting the rear twitching/sudden slides in pretty random conditions, at the apex or as I lean into turns from a stand still, it's like hitting on a patch of grease, quite dramatic in the instance but easy to recover? Possibly not helped by the fact that I have clip on's/rearsets, tending taking my weight off the rear.
Anyway thanks for all the comments, Bitza.
