Standard issues on small sportsbikes, bridgestone BT-092's (or 92's), they're dual compound and i had no trouble finding grip on them on my zxr. They were a peach to use in all weather conditions and offered sufficient feedback. Worth a shot.

Dunlop GPR100, my rear has done over 6k and still going, though needing replacement soon. Easily enough grip to get your knee down on corners.

i'v got 090's on my nc23, so far they've had about 2000miles on them. the wear has shown incredibly quickly. but they don't half love going low.
on my 092's i had christ knows how many miles. they were pretty sticky, but they're really square by comparison, so don't like corners that much.

A couple of my mates with NC30's swear by a 92 rear and an 090 front. Some also have a spare wheel with an 090 on it for sunday blasting.
