Mitas E07+ or Heidenau K60 scout

[GSAMark]

Has anyone fitted either the Mitas E07+ or Heidenau K60 scouts to their (or someone elses) R1250GS adventure? I'm struggling to find a supplier that supplies the sizes needed. This isn't a thread about "Recommend me a tyre" before anyone jumps in with suggestions or the, "hang on a minute I'll google that for you" warriors. I've tried that and the places I normally look at aren't showing anything. Bike is a 2021 model spoked wheels 120/70 R19 front & 170/60 R17 rear. I'm looking for advice on where you may have purchased them, not the actual fitting. Thanks in advance.

I have used them on a R1100GS without issue, and just used the nearest size I think a 110 front not 120 other than that and got mine from Tellesport tyres, always order mine on line and get them fitted localy.

Not recently but the last place I got done K60s from was SMD tyres in Leigh.

Cheers AustinW. Leigh isn’t too far from me so I may look into that

I had a pair of Continental Trail Attack 3 tyres fitted there at SMD last Saturday, excellent service as usual .

I contacted SMD yesterday and they quoted £290 for Heidenaus fitted! Does that seem a bit steep? I think I bought my first set from Adventure bike warehouse for around £70 front & £90 rear, £20 fitted!

Thanks for the replies guys. The bike will be going for its service soon and after speaking to Bowker Motorrad Preston, they have told me they can put on pretty much any tyre I want as long as they have prior notice for ordering purposes. Saves me an extra journey and the hassle
