190/50 makes the bike turn in slow....but it depends if you dropped the front end.

He meant in between as far as turn in speed. The 180 will be faster because its a skinnier tire. My blast's 120 rear made it possible to flick that thing any which way. However, because of the rim size, you need to get a 190 rear on most literbikes. The 190/50 is the "shortest" of the group, slowing down its turn in speed. The 55 is between them.

The "55" is the tallest..and will turn in the quickest from tires I've run.

Erik put the 190/50 on his bike not realizing it needed a 190/55. He hated it at the track. After the fact, he raised the shock about 2mm to compensate and it feels better but still isn't quite happy. I think he just needs the correct size and he can be a little happier.
