The Shinko 777 H.D. 130/90-16 rear tire is a heavy‑duty, aramid‑belted cruiser tire engineered for stable handling, durable load capacity, and confident wet and dry traction.

This rear tire is built specifically for cruiser-style motorcycles and V‑Twin machines that demand a planted feel and predictable grip. With a reinforced carcass and an aramid belt, the 777 H.D. balances load capacity and ride stability, while a siped tread pattern manages water evacuation and enhances traction during acceleration, braking, and cornering.

How does the 777 H.D. improve stability on heavy cruisers?

The heavy‑duty construction uses a reinforced carcass and aramid belting to resist deformation under load, delivering a firmer contact patch and steadier handling at speed. Riders will feel reduced squirm under acceleration and more composed behavior when carrying two‑up or touring gear.

• Reinforced heavy‑duty carcass for improved structural rigidity
• Aramid belt increases load capacity and lateral stability
• Load rating 73 suits common cruiser rear requirements
• Designed for 16-inch rims, 130/90-16 sizing

Will this tire work in wet or mixed conditions?

The tread features functional siping and grooves that channel water away from the contact area, improving grip on damp roads without compromising dry performance. The rubber compound is tuned to offer a balance of traction and comfort across typical street temperatures.

• Siping and circumferential grooves for quicker water dispersion
• Tread compound optimized for traction and rider comfort
