I'm looking for something with modern grip levels that'll fit on the stock rim.

What's out there?

I use nothing but Avon. They have the largest range and the best kick for the buck. I get excellent ware out of my Avons and I use them in all weather. I put them threw the paces in the turns more than most people would. Here is the link to the main websight so you can make a choice. I used to like and use the AM20/21 but it is being replaced by the "Roadrider" AM26. If you want something a bit more sporty than the "Venom" AM41/42 Both of these bikes are running Avons AM21/21 on the GPZ and AM26 on the Zr750

You can buy them threw any one including BikeBandit.com or Z1E

I'm VERY happy with these (if tubes needed, use Metzeler as recommended by Pirelli):

Imagine that...the Avons and Metzlers were sounding the best in all of the research I've done so far myself.

Whatever I get, they'll last a hell of a lot longer than anyting I've ever put on my other bike....
