​​​​​​​The Avon Cobra sizes for your FXDF would be:

Front: MT90B16
Rear: 180/70R16

Your timing is great man. I am researching tires this afternoon and came to the conclusion that Avons did NOT have a 130/90. A minute ago was getting ready to post up here about using the MT90B when you posted your info.Found others here also that have used the MT90B16 . It is part of the AVON AV 71 Group and is 74H speeed/load rated.

"MT" = 130 ... so the MT90 is Alphanumeric for 130/90

And then there's this...

Ok now it is clearing up.....I was originally on the AVON UK website (it is Googles fault ha ha) http://www.avon-tyres.co.uk/motorcycle/cobra-radial Did not realize it lol. That site lists MT90B16 as a TRIKE tire...threw me way off....then I wondered exactly what is the difference between a trike tire and a 2 wheeler tire, when the specs are 100% identical. Answer: In the USA, no difference. They may have started marketing that size for trikes, not realizing there might be applications for 2 wheelers.Thanks again!
