I have used Avons on my Harleys since the 70s. I suggest Venoms are a more suitable tyre. See Avon's website for their recommendations for your model:

Front tyre
Venom
Pressure front:
2.5 bar (36psi)
Front size:
MH90-21 56H (also WW)

Rear tyre

Venom
Pressure rear:
2.8 bar (40psi)
Rear size:
MT90B16 74H (also NW WW) 140/90 B16 77H

Note the recommended pressures may be higher than your stock tyres.
