S'pose it depends what you want from said rubber, ie period look or performance?.
I always had good service from Roadriders on my classics, but one of my Triples came with a nearly new set of the modern copies of the original Dunlop Ditchfinders, but despite my reservations they performed fine. That said I don't ride like a 17 year old tw@t anymore.

Depends on how hard you ride . . .
Bridgestone BT45s on Z1B.
Metzler Lasertecs on a modified Z1000.
