Heidenau K80 SR 130/70-10 62M RF TL

Heidenau K80 SR 130/70-10 is a pure road tyre for scooters, catalogued under sport and touring. Heidenau tuned the compound for wet tarmac, so rain is a working condition for K80 SR, not a reason to crawl.

What K80 SR gives you

• Wet roads: Heidenau K80 SR uses a compound optimised for wet grip.
• Mileage: Heidenau lists long service life as one of K80 SR's key traits, thanks to the additives in the mix.
• Ride quality: Heidenau K80 SR takes cobbles and tram tracks in its stride.
• Changing direction: the redesigned V-shaped contour lets Heidenau K80 SR flick easily from side to side.
• Handling: the K80 SR tread holds a line and gives clear feedback through the bars.

Compound and contour

Heidenau K80 SR is a bias-ply tyre: the size carries neither a B nor an R. Almost every size is tubeless; the only tube-type version is 3.50-10. Wet grip comes from the optimised compound; cornering behaviour from the redesigned profile contour.

Where K80 SR is not the right choice

Heidenau K80 SR carries no M+S marking; for the cold season there are winter tyres for scooters. It is not intended for track use either: for closed circuits the same profile exists as K80 SR NHS with the SRS2 compound, not approved for use on public roads.

Who this size suits

130/70-10 appears in our sample less often than the other ten-inch sizes, and only at the rear — on the Aprilia Mojito 125 and Mojito 150, for instance. Reinforced construction.

Heidenau K80 SR suits riders who ride in town and on open roads and want predictable grip in the rain. Before ordering, check the manufacturer-specified tyre size, the load and speed indices, the tyre construction and the scooter manufacturer's requirements.
