Some considerations regarding tyre loads.

The weight of a motorcycle is not always balanced nearly 50% front and 50% rear
The weight of a motorcycle will shift under acceleration and braking.

In general, a certain tyre size will only have 1 load rating... eg a 180/55/17 tyre will have a load rating of 73

Occasionally there are tyres which are marked RF for re-enforced which will have a larger load rating that the non-RF tyre.
This may give a choice of 2 tyres the same size but with 2 ratings, choose the correct one for your bike.
