Tundra:
Larue,
  I am an Avon Cobra fan and quite honestly I wouldn't try another brand.
I am COMPLETELY SATISFIED with the Cobra. Several of my local riding friends have the Dunlop Elite. I was never a Dunlop fan, but they have really come a long way and improved with the Elite. Nice aggressive looking and better mileage then my Cobra and handles very well. I have ridden a Valkyrie with the Elites front and rear and it was nice.

I have the Dunlop 404 on the Front of my Bikes due to the fact that I have Two Brand New Avon tires in my Scrap pile due to the Sidewalls Cracking, needless to say, I will not be buying any more Avon Tires. Chapparal motorsports.com has about the best price on tires,whickever brand you decide to buy.
I went with the Dunlop D404F 150/80/17 on my Standard and the D404 130/80/17 Rear tire on the Interstate with the Austone Taxi Tire on the Rear.

Thunderbolt:
Larue are you just going for an all around BIGGER look?  I never considered going with a larger tire in the front.  But I think you will like the Michelin, I still am impressed with the fact that it feels closer to a MC tire than the old Bridgestone HP 550 that I removed.  I run Avon Cobra's on the Valkyrie and the Rocket III.  Believe it or not the same exact front tire.  I have run the Metzeler ME880 once when they were giving away a front if you bought a rear.  They seemed to wear out a little sooner, but were good tires. 

John Schmidt:
I have a stock size Metz on the front with mileage in excess of 15k, run it with a c/t in back. Works for me.
