But with that smaller rear, the speedo is the least concern. The stance and balance of the bike will be out

As for mounting Pilot Powers for highway riding, that will be a very expensive albeit short lived mistake.

Yep - a 150/70. Not a 150/60.

Im not worried about the rear tire size, as I said, the 60 on the back right now is at least 1/2 inch taller than the 70 I was riding on being wore out. The bike has never riden better(sense I got it im march). I see that the scx600&750F have a 70 on the rear and the 750 bandit comes with a 60 on the rear. As much highway riding as I do, Looks Ill be getting a new tire by July-August anyway, thats kinda sad.

Absolute max tread depth you would have had was 1/4". So you are still >1/4" lower - and getting lower each ride. It's your ride - just offering info. What you do with it is completely your choice.

Any major difference ride wise between a Michelin road 2 and 3, Speaking grip wise.

Michelin Pilot Road 2 for more mileage, Pilot Road 3 if you ride in the rain often.
