Should work for you. Weirdly it's shown as a dual sport tire but that shouldn't matter.
Edit: if you can swing it linked below is the oem tire for a decent price.

It's a Bridgestone that looks very similar to this
And I had [this] (http://static.chaparral-racing.com/productimages/600/190-MS-06.jpg) Michelin before that I liked more. However, I'm not sure if the problem is because I don't like the tire, or if it's just because the tire is new and doesn't grip very well yet.
Rear
Front
Just got my third set this past April. A portion of my commute is dirt road, which often gets nasty during the summer rains and incredibly rough all other times. I find these to be a good mix for those conditions, and I'm always ready to follow a dirt trail if I want to.
Installed:
-Trail Tech 752-119 Vapor computer
-FMF PowerCore 4 exhaust
-JD rejet 39mm FCR carb
-Aluminum skid plate
Purchased (will install):
-Kenda K270 (3.25-21 front, 5.10-18 rear)
-JTR808.41 41T Steel Rear Sprocket
-DID 520VX2GB-110 Gold X-Ring Chain with Connecting Link
-MCCT, red billet
-Silicone coolant hoses
-FMF PowerBomb header
-Kick Start V162
-2011 DR-Z400S subframe
-2-port USB charger / voltmeter
-Weego JSPT524 Powersports Tether
Need to do:
-Free power mod
-Loctite clutch bolts and stator bolts
Cargo, haven't bought anything here yet:
-PMR rear rack and sissy bar.
Haven't decided between side racks:
-Option 1 - metal looks sturdy but has just 2 mounting points
-Option 2 - great that it attaches around back for extra stability, not sure how many actual mounting points it has
-Option 3 PMR again, I like that they seem to hug the bike well but not sure if metal panniers can be used, or just bags. And in fact these only seem to have 2 mounting points as well... what's the weight capacity on any of these setups if they all only have 2 mounting points?
Still researching:
-SM footpegs or similar wide option
-LED headlight bulb
-Steel brake lines
-Windscreen
-What the hell taillight I have and where to find a flat metal sheet to get my license plate to mount on it, since the existing metal plate is broken
-Ceramic coating for FMF PowerBomb header
-Ceramic wheel bearings link link link. Expensive, but would be neat if price were no object. Will be doing mostly street riding.
-Lithium battery or capacitor - this looks appealing, and ThumperTalk carries a capacitor that would cut down on weight but would mean no electric start. I have a kick start kit though so maybe I want to live without a battery, not sure.
-Iridium CR9EIX plug
-Tool kit in one of those black plastic canisters at the rear of the bike on the left, opposite the exhaust tip
-Seat Concepts seat
-Find passenger pegs & mounts to add to the S subframe
Frivolous but tempting:
