Why? I know racers sometimes put a hard compound with a soft compound. Is it to get better bite at one end to turn the bike?
What about tire wear? On the street? My front's looking a bit thin and I just got a new rear in May. (Dunlop Roadsmarts). I typically go through two rears for each front on the Gixxer. So I was thinking of putting a softer Qualifier up front next time. Handling feels pretty neutral right now, that I can tell at any rate.
