There's quite a few topics and opinions on this site; however, most everyone agrees the stock OEM Metzlers are a P.O.S. I've run Michelin Exedra Max but found Avon Cobra's better to my liking. They're not the highest mileage tire but give me more confidence in wet weather and even snow.

There is a "that depends" answer. And it depends on how you ride.

I run an E-Max rear and Road5 front (150/70 rear tyre on front rim).
This makes a big difference to effective steering angle and chassis comportment.

With a 2007 you can mess about without upsetting the ABS. The law (and your insurance) may disagree.
