The stock Bridgestones are BT54 radials. I didn't care for them. The front had very little tread depth and wore out quickly. Not nearly as good (IMHO) as the BT45 bias tires.
I also use the BT45 tires on my '93 Nighthawk and they're great (I'm on my 3rd set). I managed to get one more set of PR3 tires for my CB11 before they disappeared, so I've got time to consider what comes next. The BT45s are high on my list.
