Bridgestone BT015 F&R New Tires
Anyone know how good these tires are? Also if a 190 will fit on the rear?

will it fit? technically... yes... should you do it?? hell no... stick with the 180/55 on your 2001...
you bike has a 5.5" wheel on the rear... which the 180 is designed for... the 190 is designed for a 6" wheel... the tire would "fit" ... it would deform, it wouldn't have to correct profile.. and it'd handle like crap.

By the way the BT-015 is an OEM only tire. One bike that I know that comes with it from the factory is the new CBR1000RR. Might be somewhat comparable to the BT-016.
