Dunlop K82 Tyres

Dunlop K82 Motorcycle Tyres

The Dunlop K82 is one of the most enduring and versatile tyres in the classic motorcycle world, combining unmistakably traditional styling with the dependable performance expected from a modern road tyre. Originally developed as a successor to the famous TT100 pattern, the K82 has become a favourite for riders of lightweight and middleweight machines from the 1970s through to the 1990s. For anyone seeking a tyre that blends period correct looks with everyday usability, the Dunlop K82 remains a superb choice.

The K82 suits a wide range of machines, including popular models from Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Triumph, and BSA. Whether fitted to a Honda CB125, a Yamaha RD200, a Suzuki GT250, or a Kawasaki KH series bike, the K82 provides the right stance and a familiar, confidence-inspiring feel. Its profile and construction make it particularly well suited to smaller-capacity twostrokes and fourstrokes, commuter bikes, and lightweight classics that benefit from a tyre designed for realworld road use.

Dunlop continues to manufacture the K82 using modern materials and quality control processes, ensuring consistent performance, durability, and predictable handling in a wide range of conditions. While its appearance remains true to its heritage, the K82 offers the reassurance of contemporary rubber compounds and construction techniques. Available in key 18in sizes it provides a practical, reliable solution for riders who use their classic regularly, whether for commuting, weekend rides, or club events.
