Jawa
660 Tyres Guide |
The
Jawa 660 Sportard is supplied with Continental Road Attack tyres,
which are wonderful on the road, they suit the bike well, they
grip well both wet and dry and they give loads of feedback. They
are 100% road tyres, so not so good off road. We offer two different
alternative tyres as an extra cost option. The Continental Trail
Attack tyres are deeply grooved road tyres designed to be very
nearly as good as Road Attacks on tarmac but offer a useful amount
of grip off road. Finally the TKC 80 tyres which look awesome
and have enough off road grip for most people while still being
much better than you might expect on the road. We have produced
a guide to help you decide which is the best tyre for you. |

Continental Road
Attack
This is the standard
tyre fitted from the factory. 100% road tyre designed by Continental
to offer as near as possible the same level of grip and feel
as a true super sport tyre but with extended life for touring.
It is an excellent road tyre.

Continental Trail
Attack
A great choice for
mainly road use, but with occasional excursions on to dry or
slightly muddy off road tracks. They still look like road tyres
at first glance, but have been cleverly designed by continental
to offer more off road grip then their appearance would suggest.

Continental TKC 80
Developed by Continental
to meet the growing need from large fast powerful adventure
bikes that have to work as long distance tourers as well as
off road explorers. Excellent off road grip on almost any surface
and surprisingly good on the road.
