Can I put a 120/17 70 on an R6?

Maybe, but it also makes a big change to the feel. A 60 series is typically going to be about 2 cm smaller in diameter than a 70. Thus effectively dropping the front end unless you compensate for it. Why risk giving him a tire that he might not like, just to save $100? I don't get it. There are plenty of good deals out there.
