Shinko SE890 Journey Touring 180/60 R16 74H (Задняя)

The Shinko SE 890 Journey Touring motorcycle tire is designed for motorcycles in the "touring" and "cruiser" categories. At the same time, the extensive size range ensures applicability even to the largest and heaviest representatives of this category. Another feature of this model is that it is offered in two design options - for the front and rear wheels. In both cases, the tire is equipped with a V-shaped symmetrical tread pattern, optimized for prolonged driving on highways over time and distance.

Durable and lightweight carcass

Unlike most competitors, Shinko preferred to abandon the use of metals in the carcass design. They were replaced with synthetic materials, in particular, aromatic polyamide, from which the cord is made. It, being a synthetic fiber, is characterized by very high mechanical strength and resistance to high-temperature effects, as well as extremely low weight. As a result, the Shinko SE890 Journey Touring turned out to be not only durable but also very light, which, in turn, led to a reduction in the unsprung masses of the motorcycle.

Original V-shaped tread pattern

In both design options, this model is offered with a practically identical tread pattern. The only difference is the size of its elements, which is due to the dimensions - in the front tire, they are significantly smaller.

The V-shaped design is formed by numerous drainage grooves that start in the shoulder areas of the tread and end in its central part. Here is a very wide longitudinal rib, which has a very high resistance to deformation. This feature allowed to provide stability and reliability to the handling, as well as to ensure the speed and accuracy of the driver's commands.

Main features of the Shinko SE890 Journey Touring motorcycle tire

- excellent applicability, ensuring the possibility of installing the tire on the front and rear wheels of motorcycles in the "touring" and "cruiser" categories, including the largest representatives;
- a multi-layer carcass made of synthetic materials is characterized by excellent strength and low weight, which significantly reduces the negative impact of unsprung masses on the motorcycle's handling;
- the original V-shaped tread pattern is optimized for prolonged driving on highways at high speeds;
- numerous drainage grooves not only provide high resistance to aquaplaning but also traction properties on a wet road due to the very long engagement edges formed by them.
