Rear tyres:180 or 190? What's your preference?

Hi Shaun,
With the 190 on a 5.5 rim, what was it like flicking from left to right etc.
I got an 89 GSXR1100 with a 180 slick on a 5.5 rim and it is a bit slow in changing direction. e.g. Puke Jenian into Castrol, and at taupo's infeild.
Wouldn't the 190 be harder to flick from one side to the other because the center diameter would be bigger??

I'm running a 190.55 on the rear of my bandit at present and being taller, the steering is sped up , probably too much now as I run a 25mm longer shock as well. It may just suit the 1100 and I'm told a TLR 6.0 rim will fit yours as well.
I'll probably return to a 180,but the comparison was interesting. Gaz.

I was interested for future reference. Plan to lower the gearing a lot as i never use 5 or 6 gear,
