Shinko Motorcycle Tires 777 Front H.D. 130/60-19 Black Wall — Heavy‑Duty cruiser front, aramid belting, wet-capable tread

The Shinko 777 Front H.D. 130/60-19 (67H) is a heavy‑duty front street tire engineered for cruiser motorcycles, combining a reinforced carcass, aramid belting and a wet‑capable tread for stable handling and confident traction.

This Shinko 777 H.D. front tire is built to suit V‑Twin and metric cruiser frames that use a 19" rim and a 130/60 profile. It pairs a comfort‑focused rubber compound with a tread pattern that includes siping and grooves to shed water while preserving a planted feel under acceleration, braking and lean. The H (130 mph) speed rating and load index 67 reflect its design for routine street use on heavyweight cruiser machines; choices in size and construction make it a common replacement option for riders seeking stability and predictable feedback.

How does the H.D. construction affect ride stability?

The Heavy‑Duty version adds a reinforced carcass and aramid belting to the standard 777 design, increasing sidewall support and load capacity without drastically changing ride comfort. That reinforcement reduces flex during braking and cornering, giving a firmer, more planted sensation on the front end.

• Reinforced carcass for reduced sidewall flex
• Aramid belt increases load capacity and directional stability
• Maintains cruiser comfort while improving steering precision

Will this tire perform well in wet conditions?

The tread features functional siping and water‑channeling grooves designed to evacuate moisture and preserve contact patch adhesion. In mixed wet and dry street riding it aims to balance traction and predictable behavior rather than sportbike grip extremes.

• Siping helps bite on damp pavement and reduces hydroplaning risk
• Groove layout directs water away from the footprint
• Tread compound tuned for consistent wet/dry braking feel

Is the 130/60‑19 (67H) size right for my cruiser?

The 130/60‑19 profile fits many cruiser front ends that accept a 19" rim and work with the specified load and speed ratings. Confirm compatibility by checking your motorcycle’s placard, owner’s manual or a tire professional to match load index 67 and H speed rating with the bike’s requirements.

• Rim size: 19" — confirm wheel compatibility
• Load rating 67 — verify against vehicle placard requirements
• Speed rating H — suitable for standard street speeds up to the rating

How does the Shinko compound affect comfort and wear?

Shinko formulated the rubber to prioritize grip and rider comfort on cruiser setups; the compound supports compliant ride quality while resisting uneven wear. The result is a tire that aims for steady mileage with confident traction in everyday street conditions.

• Compound balances tackiness for traction and durability for mileage
• Designed to reduce harsh feedback while retaining steering feel
• Suitable for regular street use rather than track-focused applications

Who this is for: Riders of V‑Twin and metric cruiser motorcycles who need a reliable front replacement tire in 130/60‑19 size, want a heavier‑duty carcass for extra stability under load, and value a tread that performs across wet and dry pavement. Verify rim and load compatibility with your motorcycle’s specifications or a tire professional before purchase.
