Tyre size:
What tyre size do you require?
The exact size of a tyre can be found on its sidewall.
The following chart shows you how to read a tyre size.
1. Overall tire width in mm
2. Ratio of tire height to tire width in%
3. Tire design: ''R'' = radial tires (widely used), ''D'' or ''-'' = diagonal tires (rare)
4. Required rim diameter for this tire in inches
5. Key figure for tire load capacity
6. Key figure for the permissible maximum speed (speed index)
7. Motorcycle tire identification, tires only approved for motorcycles
8. DOT labeling
9. Date of manufacture of the tire (week of production / year of production)
 
/
SPEED INDEX:
The speed index indicates the maximum speed intended for the tyre. Up to this value, the manufacturer guarantees optimum operation with the appropriate tyre pressure. The maximum speed allowed for this vehicle is given in the vehicle owner's manual; this information can be used to select the appropriate speed index for the tyre. The speed index is the last mark on the sidewall of the tyre.

For UK weather, these are great. Fast warm up and not a disaster if you hit loose surfaces. They are a rain tyre pattern, but with a relatively harder compound and originally designed for supermoto bikes. They are still soft compared to an allround tyre like pirelli diablo strada, but do have good tread depth. As one of the few tyres that have the front wheel tread pattern facing down instead of up, i admit that aesthetics played a part in my decision. However, crappy and cold UK roads are where these excel. They warm up almost instantly and don't melt into nothing on longer motorway(freeway) stretches. I think they're too short lived for a commuter because it's a single compound and will square off the rear, but for the weekend warrior that wants a real allrounder for any roads, they are hard to beat. The K60 scout doesn't come in popular 17" sizes and is more plastic than rubber. The ubiquitous TKC80 vibrate at high speeds and aren't great in the wet. The Bridgestone AX41s scrambler and Pirelli Scorpion tyres are a close competitor, although I may only try it on the rear next time. If you have a heavy bike, no problem as k73 are bias ply. If you want to do a track day, get something else. Interestingly, more and more custom bikes are fitting heidenau k73 in lieu of the too aggressive continental TKC80 and the not aggressive enough TKC70.

Tyres act and feel as they look, tight handling on corners lots of grip on bends swift braking where necessary great in the wet on drying surfaces the ride is superb in the wet will out perfirm your expectatiins (but be safe) roll well no real loss of speed a really goid fiit prunt on the road in the winter. I personally have winter and summer tyres i swap out when the seasons are rught , i do ride all year round would love Heidenau to bring out a z-Q rated for a rear 180/55 hint hint as my litre bike would lap at the floor with these on! Great value , great design and all sorts of fun when you have to turn it up.

I have had nothing but puncture after puncture with Pirelli. 2 Rosso 2’s and even worse Rosso 3’s x2, too soft for British road’s but I am held to ransom as I can’t get Michelin’s in the size any more for some reason.
23.12.2021 from Sean
Good grip wet & dry(>10degC) and reasonable feedback, mainly used on fast A and twisty B roads. Ride quite hard so only about 2500 miles from rear tyre, about double for front. Comparable to other tyres, is Michelin road smart 4

17.06.2021 from Greg
Break away is progressive, wet weather breaking is very impressive, longevity and resistance to squaring off even on long journeys has made the tyre a great companion for the money. My only gripe is a lack of sensation nearer the limit of cornering grip. although due to the smooth breakaway, understeer is relatively recoverable. Not bad at all.
21.12.2010 from Allen
I am on my second pair, I think they provide great grip and ride quality. They feel much better than the BT45. They wear acceptably, around 9000 miles/14000 KM for rears double that for fronts. Judging from the other posts I guess they don't like German roads.

i kill my bike allover and the tyre seems to cope

Better than Dunlop Arrowmax which is fixed by factory.

While tyre performance is good. Tyre longevity is very poor !!
11.07.2015 from Robert Nott
My first tyre was recalled by Continental thru Delticom Tyres for a potential sidewall fault. The cost to fit the replacement tyre was £31.50 but Delticom only refunded me £11.60. I am out of pocket by £19.90 and Delticom will not refund this amount. The tyre is great but cannot recommend Delticom Tyres.

07.02.2025 from David Bennett
I fitted these tyres after a Scotland trip with the existing trail type tyres, a couple of front end twitches and countless times the traction control kicked in even just on damp roads. With these tyres fitted a mix of high speed touring across France and Swiss alpine passes, prior to which some weekend riding with mates on sports bikes. Adjusted the fork preload and the tyres performed impeccably, even the day we had monsoon like rain. I had already sorted the pressures to my liking which were 36 front and 38 rear, with or without full luggage. The bike has limited adjustment on the suspension but only required a few clicks on the rear between fully loaded and rider only. I’ve always ridden sports bikes until recently but my worries about grip handling the tight switchbacks on such a heavy bike were very quickly dispelled, No real signs of wear yet I’ll have to see how they do for longevity, but no hesitation at buying these tyres again. I have Avon sport tyres on my Honda VTR SP1 and these tyres give the same feedback and a very comfortable ride. Front 110/80R19. Rear 150/70ZR17

28.03.2022 from Bob Fisher
I am in the older age category but still like riding enthusiastically. I live in the northern part of the UK with some brilliant twisty roads, usually well surfaced and reasonably quiet of traffic. These are the roads I like, where I can enjoy myself. Don't take all of the star ratings as accurate as some are not fully tested but they inspire trust and confidence. Also fitted to my VFR800
23.02.2022 from Mark
The front gives way under cornering with no warning. On at least two occasions under normal cornering and not heavy or fast, the tyre has lost grip. I was lucky to manage to keep the bile from dropping. i usually cover about 8000 - 1000 miles a year in all conditions. I used the RoadTec 01 in the past and they were a better all round tyre, the new SE seems to be lacking in feedback. I would use the RoadTec 01 again but not the SE.

20yrs riding experience. Have 3 bikes currently. Live in NE Scotland. Very confident dry riding fast where safe to do so but cautious in the Scottish wet slippy roads.
