No Confidence on 749 in wet

Greetings, not long got myself my 749S after riding CBR600's for the last couple of years on Brigestone tyres. The 749 is great and I have much fun on it, however I went out on it in the rain the other day and had no confidence in it at all, i was locking up the front and skidding through the lights frequently. I think the tyres fitted are michelin/Pirelli but can't quite remember
I am wondering if those that know, could offer me advice, I used to ride the CBR's in the wet not much slower than i rode them in the dry such was the confidence i had in the bike. Now i wondered if my lack of confidence could be down to the different tyres and whether or not I would really notice a difference in tyre makes?
Any advice would be appreciated.
