Suggest you find a good inch-sized tire. Michelin Pilot Activs are made in the proper sizes for the R90S.
 
If you are just going to show it off at Starbucks, go with the original RB 2 K 112 combo. If you actually want to ride the bike go with Avon Road Riders, Michelin Pilot Activs or Continental Classic Attack. All are excellent.

I have the Conti Classic Attacks on my R 100S. Easy to mount, relatively long lasting for the grip and handling, both wet and dry, that they generate and a nice stable ride. Mine are scuffed out from rim to rim. I like them. Also have a set on my R 100RS (avatar photo).
