I would say a Dunlop Geomax MX52 in 110/90-19 or 120/90-19. But I'm a Dunlop guy. Other brands are probably OK as well, just don't know all the types of tires.

A 120 size tire is going to have superior straight line traction and that Suzuki will still turn plenty good with it. Dunlop mx 3s is a great tire. Pick your brand, but go with a 120.

The Bridgestone x30 are a good setup in the wider 120s on the rmz. I got a set from rocky mo7ntain for just over $100 with a coupon a few weeks ago

The Starcross 5's are a much better tire IMO. From my experience the Dunlop does nothing better.

Look at an IRC VE33, relatively cheap and a great all around tire.
