Question NEW tires available in sizes for our 16" wheels?

I appreciate the wealth of experience that has gone into the FAQ at https://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/What_t...fit_the_250%3F on tire models that will fit our classic first generation Ninjettes, but it hasn't been updated in 6 years.

Many of the tires recommended there have been discontinued (and I'm not fond of buying new old stock when it comes to tires.). Some of the tires are no longer available in our sizes.

It seems that some new tires have been released in our sizes, even a few that include an option for our front wheels and a few that aren't designed for heavy cruisers.

Can people share their experiences with newer tire options?

Is there a good thread or place that's compiled data updating the old FAQ that I've missed?

Is there a place with good motorcycle tire tests or reviews? Even for tires in our old, now outdated or rare, sizes? For car tires I like tirerack.com, tyrereviews, caranddriver, and consumerreports. I haven't found anything comparable for motorcycle tires yet.
