I do no I'd not be riding it in the rain and for me there's only one hp4 and that was the last version with the boxter engine 'twas a wok of art.
You're right, there is only one HP4 however, it's the S1000RR as the boxer engined one was the HP2!
As for the OP, is there such a thing as a 195 tyre? I presume you mean 190. If the rim is the same size as the cooking version then I wouldn't see much problem using a 190 PR3 on the HP4, though seeing as the 200 isn't that rare a tyre size these days Im surprised that Michelin don't do the PR3 in it.
In my experience the bods on the stands are sales droids rather than techies & will just repeat what's in the brochure, so you'd be far better off knocking out a mail to BMW &/or Michelin directly & asking them.
