Dunlop D408 Motorcycle Tyre - 130/90B16 TL 67H M/C

This tyre is an Original Equipment fitment for select Harley-Davidson touring models, including those featuring black sidewall tyres from 2014 onwards, such as the Street Glide and Softail.

MT Technology uses different rubber compounds on the tyre. The center tread is harder for longer life, while the shoulder treads are softer for enhanced grip when cornering, providing a balance of durability and performance.

The tyre features angled grooves designed to efficiently disperse water from the contact patch, offering improved security and grip during rides in wet conditions.

While it is an OE tyre for specific Harley-Davidson models, it may be possible to fit on other motorcycles if the dimensions (130/90B16), load index (67H), and speed rating (H) are compatible and meet the motorcycle's requirements. Always consult your motorcycle's manual or a professional technician for verification.

Recommended tyre pressure varies by motorcycle model. Always refer to your specific motorcycle's owner's manual or the information located on the vehicle's frame or swingarm for the correct pressure settings.

Look for a directional arrow molded into the sidewall of the tyre. This arrow indicates the direction of rotation. Ensure the arrow points in the same direction as the wheel will turn when moving forward.

The D408 is specifically developed with Harley-Davidson and features their Multi-Tread technology for cruiser-style motorcycles. Other Dunlop tyres may be designed for different riding styles (e.g., sport, adventure) with varying compound and tread patterns.

Check the tyre valve stem for leaks and ensure the valve cap is securely fitted. Inspect the tyre bead seating for any damage or debris. A slow leak may also originate from a small puncture; consult a professional for inspection and repair.

Uneven wear can be caused by improper inflation, incorrect wheel alignment, or unbalanced wheels. Ensure correct tyre pressure is maintained, check suspension components, and have the wheels professionally aligned and balanced.

Verify that the tread grooves are not clogged with debris. Ensure the tyre is not excessively worn, as tread depth is critical for water evacuation. Maintain correct tyre pressure for optimal contact patch and water displacement.
