Description Shinko SR428
The Shinko SR428 motorcycle tire is designed for installation on the rear wheels of large touring "enduro" bikes. This model is distinguished by its universal characteristics, providing excellent traction both on high-speed highways and off-road with solid pavement. In addition, it is worth noting the very long service life and high resistance to punctures and cuts.
Excellent traction and adhesion properties in the longitudinal direction
Since the SR428 is designed for operation not only on asphalt roads but also beyond, the Shinko tire manufacturers faced a challenging task, complicated by the large weight of touring "enduro" bikes. That's why this tire is equipped with a tread pattern that features blocks of such massive sizes. At the same time, it does not contain any longitudinal ribs, as most tread elements occupy not only the central part but also the shoulder areas. As a result, the tire's contact patch contains very long transverse edges, providing it with excellent traction and adhesion properties in the longitudinal direction.
Good stability in turns
One of the characteristic features of this tire is its excellent stability when maneuvering. Such capabilities have appeared due to two factors. First of all, it is the shape of the tread profile, which ensures the constancy of the size and configuration of the contact patch even at a significant angle of the motorcycle's tilt. Another factor that provided the tire with excellent stability in turns is the massive blocks in the shoulder areas.
Main features of the Shinko SR428 motorcycle tire
- the tire was specifically created for "dual-sport" category motorcycles;
- very extended transverse edges provide excellent traction and adhesion properties in the longitudinal direction;
- a large number of massive blocks in the shoulder areas allow the tire to demonstrate stability and stability when passing turns;
- a multifunctional drainage system with wide and deep grooves not only provides excellent resistance to aquaplaning but also allows the tread to quickly get rid of foreign soil particles;
- excellent strength due to the multi-layered construction of the carcass made of modern technological materials.
