Shinko 712's are a good tire that grips well.You could drag your pegs if you wanted. They are pretty affordable and seem to hold up well.I have a little under 5k miles on mine and they are just starting to show wear.
The conversion charts are hard to read. The best fit for your bike will be a 100/90-19 on the front and a 120/90-18 for the rear. Those are really the biggest tire you can run without getting awful close to things. I ran a 110 on the front once,but it was dangerously close to the front fender.Like,check every time you ride kinda of close.
