Heidenau K34 5.00-16 71H TT

K34 5.00-16 is the largest size in the Heidenau K34 line, sized for heavy pre-war and post-war motorcycles. The tread is styled true to the original, with modern construction and materials underneath.

Key features

• Design: The fine block tread of Heidenau K34 keeps the classic look of heavy cruisers from the 1940s–60s.
• Speed rating: The H index permits up to 210 km/h — ample margin for road use.
• Load: The 5.00-16 size carries load index 71, built for high unladen weight.
• Comfort: Heidenau's classic range is built around damping — the bias-ply construction smooths out the workings of an older chassis.
• Fitment: Suitable for front or rear fitment, depending on the model.

Tread and construction

Heidenau K34 has a fine block-and-groove tread — a traditional road pattern intended for road use on both dry and wet tarmac. The construction is bias-ply and the type is tube-type (TT), requiring an inner tube. A modern rubber compound is used.

Application

The 5.00-16 size is often seen on heavy pre-war and post-war American cruisers — for instance the Harley-Davidson Hydra Glide, Duo Glide and Electra Glide line from 1948–1969, and the 1941 Indian Series 441. This is a pure road tyre for summer use on heavy classics.
