    I have not used 005 but used 003 ( 3 years as a race tire ) when yokohama was making them and they are a great tire and good in the rain as well ( you wouldn't think they would be due to limited tread pattern )
    one thing I would not put a 190 on a VFR stay w/ the 180 or proformance will suffer- slower steering and tire wear the 190 is made for a 6" wide rim not a 5.5 - if you mount 190 on 5.5" rim it could cause you to loose traction at max lean angles.
