Description
Scooter riders logging real daily mileage need a front tire that was engineered for their specific machine rather than adapted from a motorcycle tire chart, and the Bridgestone L309F in 140/80-17 was developed as original equipment for that reason. Bridgestone’s OE tires go through the same validation process as the bike itself, matching sidewall stiffness and tread profile to how a given scooter platform actually loads its front end at city and highway speeds.
- 140/80-17 M/C bias-ply front tire, tubeless, 69H speed rating
- Original Equipment (OE) specification for factory-matched handling
- Front-specific tread profile tuned for scooter steering geometry
- Tubeless construction simplifies repair and reduces slow-leak risk
- Consistent wear characteristics for daily commuting and stop-and-go traffic
Because this is an OE-spec tire, it is the safest replacement choice when you want your scooter to steer and brake exactly the way it did when new, rather than introducing an unknown handling change. IPD Racing lists the L309F in the exact 140/80-17 M/C 69H front sizing called for on the scooter models that shipped with it, so double-check your OE sticker before ordering. Scooter owners who skip the OE spec in favor of a mismatched budget tire often notice the difference first in braking feel, which is exactly the variable Bridgestone tuned the L309F around.
