Motorcycle Front Tire Sizing - Advice, Please

This Ducati MH900E that is coming my way has a 120/65zr17 front...I'll be pulling the original tires to mount a new set. The 120/65's appear to be rare...can't find what I want.
Should I go for a 120/60 or a 120/70?
60 may be too quick ...the 70 a bit slower.
I can put up with a slower turn in ...not sure I want a quicker turn in. I'm an old fart, after all.
Maybe it's all just technical woo woo...and I'll not notice...dunno.
What's say you gurus?
