Heidenau K66 130/70-12 62P M/C TL

The Heidenau K66 4-Season Scooter motorcycle tire, according to the manufacturer's assurances, is perfectly suited for operation throughout the year. However, since the manufacturer is German, year-round use is only possible with consideration of winter in European countries, where conditions are characterized by minor frosts and frequent thaws. I.e., this model perfectly copes with aquaplaning and slushplaning.

The tread of this tire is distinguished by a specific profile, characteristic of most models designed for use on scooters. Since this type of motorcycle is not designed to pass turns at large angles, the tread profile has a very small slope, making it very similar to a car tire. This similarity becomes even more striking due to the symmetrical directional tread pattern, executed in a V-shaped design, which is characteristic of winter tires for passenger cars. Moreover, the tread pattern represents a continuous alternation of sharp edges of adhesion, formed by numerous blocks and lamellas on their surface, which is also characteristic of the best winter passenger car tires.

The tread pattern of the Heidenau K66 tire is divided into three functional zones - the central part and two shoulder areas. The edges of the blocks located in the central part of the tread are arranged at a sharp angle relative to the direction of movement. This provides high efficiency of acceleration on a slippery surface. The tread blocks of the shoulder zones are arranged almost perpendicular to the direction of movement, which has a favorable effect on the braking distance, especially on a slippery road surface.

Another feature of this tread pattern is the large size of the contact patch, which was achieved thanks to the massive size of the blocks and the small distance between them. In addition, the V-shaped design allows you to maintain these sizes when moving in any mode.
