Rear tires often have three compounds with the firmest in center and softer moving towards outer edges. This can give more grip when leaned over than a mono compound front tire. The 150-70 profile also matches well with the 240 rear reducing "understeer" from a narrower 140 profile.

My first try at a rear on the front was Blaines. Liked it very much. I must admit though after trying Ricks bike with the the Michelin Road 5 on it and Steve is not kidding about the grip. I'll be setting one of my rims up with one to go back with me.
I first ran the Avon Azaro back in 2013, and I like most all your ideas, Amigo!
I remember Patrick @albertaduke and Chris @barbagris running it. Several others as well that I forget who.
