Some general information on Heidenau Tyres.
Created specifically for South Africa
South Africa is blessed with some of the finest dual purpose riding conditions anywhere on this planet. It is also some of the most demanding
Heidenau, in keeping with their specialist niche market philosophy, created the new K60 Scout dual sport tyre specifically for Southern African conditions.
The 150/70-17" Scout is even marked RSA on the side wall making it the first and only dual purpose tyre to be made specifically for our market conditions.
After two years of extensive local testing many changes were made to compounds and tread patterns to make it a true 50/50 dual purpose adventure tyre.
Offering excellent grip both on and off road , exceptional mileage (e.g a fully laden BMW GS 1150 Adventure rode from SA to Sweden on one set) and arguably the strongest side wall of any dual purpose tyre, the K60 Scout series is available in various size permutation for all dual purpose bikes from 450cc to 1200cc.
Whether you ride a BMW, Honda, Kawasaki , KTM , Suzuki , Triumph or Yamaha dual sport motorcycle there is a Hedi for you!
