<< Hi Ian, My recommendation is the Continental Blitz - TKH23 110/90-18 front and TKH24 120/90-18 rear. Or you can substitute a Conti-Tour TK17 rear for several bucks more. Either combination is very good - excellent traction wet or dry, good handling characteristics, and long wearing as well. Priced right too - M.A.W. has the 23/24 for $52 front and $59 rear at present.
I also notice Bridgestone has the S-11 in the same sizes for $50 front and $60 rear. I've never used these, so can't comment on traction/handling/durability.
With the 120 rear you may have to move the brake anchor to the other side of it's mounting bracket for clearance.
Cheers, Charlie
