KR1 tyre supplies?

does anyone still make a sports 100/70/17 front tyre any more?

Im trying to get hold of new tyres, and the nearest are the GPR Alpha-10s in 140/60/18 - which is fine for the rear, but the nearest I seem to get for the front is a 110/70/17 ??

Id prefer to stick with standard sizes if possible.

but i doubt theyre particularly sporty? Or has someone here tried them?

I think everyone with a KR-1 (myself included) now runs a 110 front 140 rear combination with no ill effects.

I've had a sport demon on therear once, and it really was ok, even on trackdays it did what it had to do.
