Question:

Can I switch out a Dunlop 170/70H 16 rear motorcycle tire?

for a Dunlop 170/70B16M/G758 rear motorcycle tire? This one is not expected to be in stock for quite some time and I need a new rear tire now ! The 170/70H 16 is available now. But what is the difference?

Answer:

You should use both all the time, apply the front brake slightly more than the rear.
Both! Sounds like you should practice your hard stops from traffic speeds for a bit, in some empty parking lot, of course. Practice until you start doing stoppies.
170/70-16 appears to be the size of BOTH tires. What is the issue?
