Yes. Do it. Do it. Search that ish, it's been covered!!

But hey, since we're here...

The profiles are slightly different, but it's not going to buck you off the bike. Just go easy till you get used to the slightly different feeling.

I ran the Pilot Power front with Pirelli Rosa Rear. Could not tell a difference at all. I wore out my rear in no time front still good so now I have another Rear still running my pilot front no issues.
