(The wear indicators say I need a new back tire, while the front tire looks relatively new. The old tires are Dunlop K630; I'm thinking about going to Shinko SR740,741.)

Not necessarily, but you need to think about it a bit and don't go overboard with the mismatch. I have a front Bridgestone BT45 on my Guzzi, but am still wearing out the rear Avon AM26 Roadrider. I just took a round trip on VA route 16, "The Back of the Dragon" and no odd handling traits showed up. If there were any, that's where they would have surfaced.
