The supersport tyre from the Italian brand does the double equipping the latest models presented by the Schiranna company, in 120/70 ZR17 front and 180/55 ZR17 and 200/50 ZR17 rear sizes
October 21, 2014 – Confirming itself as the best choice for high-performance and the most exclusive motorcycles recently launched on the market, the DIABLO ROSSO™II continues its domination.
In fact the supersport tyre of the Pirelli range has been chosen by MV Agusta to equip the new Brutale 800 RR (120/70 ZR17 front and 180/55 ZR17 rear sizes) and the Brutale Dragster 800 RR (120/70 ZR17 front and 200/50 ZR17 rear).
In particular, the 200/50 ZR17 rear equipping the new Brutale Dragster 800 RR has been specially developed by Pirelli for this MV Agusta model.
Recent changes to Germany’s drivers’ license regulations have had a positive effect on the growth of the midsize-motorcycle market segment.
Up to now, the most commonly used tire size combination for this segment, 120/70 and 160/60-17, has not been available in the “M+S” marked version which German law requires for winter conditions.
To fill the gap in this growing market, Heidenau will introduce the already popular Heidenau K73 pattern in a special winter-version with “M+S”-marking. As all HEIDENAU motorcycle winter tires, these new tires will be manufactured using high-grade silica compounds to minimize braking distances and maximize grip on cold and wet road surfaces.
The combination of carcass, compound and open tread design ensures the traction required for winter conditions including mud and/or snow.
The tires will be on the market in mid October.
sizes:
120/70-17 M/C 58H TL K73 M+S SiO2
160/60-17 M/C 69H TL K73 M+S SiO2
Heidenau extends its range by new models and dimensions.
The new tyres are the Scooter sport tyre, the all rounder #K66 and of course the #K66Snowtex winter tyre.
The K66 is a modern all round tyre for daily use with balanced performance on wet and dry roads. By the open profile design the tyre provides superior water drainage on wet roads. The K66 also offers superb grip on dry roads, especially on slippery road surfaces the open tread blocks offer higher level safety.
The K66 Snowtex combines the characteristics of the K66 profile with the advantages of a high-quality silica rubber compound. This, and special textile fibres in the compound maximize grip under winter conditions and at temperatures below 7°C. So the K66 Snowtex provides outstanding traction and high safety reserves on the cold season of the year.
Following a long period of development and extensive test cycles, they will be available in 160/60 -14 (65H) TL dimensions.
For the front, we will also offer both profiles in size 120/70 -15 (56H) TL.
So it will soon be possible to equip maxi-scooters such as Suzuki Burgman 650, Gilera Nexus 500 or Kymco MyRoad 700, with tires from the Saxony manufactory.
Mitas will also introduce new sizes of tyres for scooters. The new dimensions of MC38 MAX SCOOT, the front option for Honda new scooter models Vision and NSC, are 80/90 -14 (40P) and 80/90 -16 (45P)
Grippy compound:
New multi-functional compound has been developed to improve a dry and wet road grip
Owing to its special composition the compound quickly warms up to an optimum working temperature and provides for a road grip in all conditions and on various surfaces
The compound in combination with a rigid and stable carcass assures a longer service life of a tyre
All components are well blended thanks to a special mixing procedure. Well-blended components assure a homogenous compound, tyre structure and shape, which further results in a lower rolling resistance and fuel consumption.

At the INTERMOT Fair in Cologne this October, we will introduce the new K60 Scout sizes:
120/70 B19 (60T) M+S
170/60 B17 (72T) M+S
The K 60 Scout is a true dual-sport tire, bringing a proven balance of performance both on and off road; and the new tires are expected to perform up to the standards set by the rest of the Scout family.
The positive experience with the 4.00-18 K28, which is used on the #URAL_RETRO, among other things, has prompted Heidenau to also bring the 4.00-19 dimension onto the market as a sidecar tire. Here too, the large contact area will ensure that the driving forces are distributed optimally and wear is minimized.
The newly developed tire structure is also specially designed to transfer the steering forces of the sidecar to the road in a targeted manner, thus ensuring good handling and braking behavior.
The 4.00 -19 TT Heidenau K28 motorcycle tire will be available from retailers from spring 2015.
