>Has anyone mixed Dunlops with Bridestones?

Last Fall, I mixed an original front Bridgestone with a Dunlop Sportmax D207
rear with good results.  No problems at all.  Now I run D207's front and
back.  I'm about to replace the back after 5700 miles (it was a mild
winter).  This tire change will also add the Race Tech springs and
emulators.  I wonder if I will notice any change in wear...any thoughts?

In the past on an ST1100, I mixed a front Bridgestone with a new Dunlop
twice with good results.   I only had instability problems (head-sh sh
shake)  when the front tire neared the end of it's useful life (10k to 12k).
Scary... Have there been any complaints of head shake on the Triumph ST?
