The latest in Bridgestone's BATTLAX line of premium motorcycle tires, the BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 features even more exceptional levels of dry grip performance when riding on circuits or cornering on mountain roads.The BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 employs a newly designed compound in the edge portion of the tread that makes contact with the road when banking at sharp angles, maximizing edge grip when cornering, and allowing riders to take their sports riding performance to the next level.An updated pattern, incorporating the PULSE GROOVE, contributes to the tyre’s impressive wet weather performance.What is PULSE GROOVE?This new thread pattern uses a pulse-shaped groove and deflector that optimizes water flow.
