Oh, c'mon, Steve! You know exactly what the flock is up.
The 130 Ex Max up front provides unparalleled quickness and maximum responsiveness when it comes to optimum handling from off the shelf tires for our Rockets, especially when paired with the matching B'stone 240 on the rear.
NOTE:
If you ride an ABS-equipped Roadster, the resulting geometry of the 130/240 combination is dangerous. Firstly, it will defeat the ABS sensors causing the ABS to fail (not work) and secondly the smaller tire in front will lower the bike sufficiently to cause certain bits (front pegs?) not only to drag, but potentially to hook onto ground or road irregularities when leaned, potentially leading to a catastrophic, unintentional dismount. DO NOT USE A 130 SERIES TIRE IF YOUR R3 IS EQUIPPED WITH ABS BRAKES!!!
To my knowledge, nobody has tried the Bridgestone Exedra Max 130/75 17 on an R3T, but I'd suspect that the compromised ABS condition would apply to it as well, hence the warning stated above should be heeded.
