In Australia, Avon's are expensive, so I put them only on my 750 Sport because I like to lean it a tad more than my other twins. I like those tyres a lot.

I got them through an eBay seller named 250champ:

I don't know if he has them listed currently. He also sells radaelli style. No connection to him, just a happy customer.

You can also try motocicliveloci:

He has a good price and they are made in Italy.

This is getting impossible! I'm trying to hold out for a wm2 front but nobody has them! I tried Buchanan, CWC in England, the motoci** guys in Italy and
that 250champ guy from ebay with the Chinese wheels won't email me back...

Shit man, I need a freakin wheel. Anybody know where I can find a WM2 18, 36 hole drilled for a big 200mm brake? HELP!

I think the Yamaha XS650 hubs were 200mm, not sure how wide your hub is, but you could probably get these to work.

EDIT: The drum brake hubs were 200mm, a rim drilled for the disc brake hub probably won't work.
