Bridgestone announced today the launch of the BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23, its new sport tire for motorcycles used on urban roads that will be available starting January 2024.
The Bridgestone BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 is the latest product in Bridgestone’s premium motorcycle tire range, which celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2023. Offering several performance improvements over its predecessor, the BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 is a next-generation sport tire designed to meet the requirements of sporty driving on asphalt, featuring increased performance levels on dry surfaces when riding on circuits or cornering on mountain roads.
The BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 uses a newly designed rubber compound on the outer part of the tire to establish better contact with the road when leaning at steep angles and maximize grip in corners, allowing for improved sporty driving performance to a higher level.
The updated tread, incorporating Pulse Groove Technology, contributes to better performance even in difficult road conditions and rainy weather, providing drivers with enhanced grip, superior maneuverability, and ultimately, confidence.
Bridgestone is committed to supporting the development of a safe and enjoyable motorcycle culture, offering peace of mind by advancing a global premium niche strategy that utilizes products, including its premium BATTLAX brand tires. Through these efforts, the company aims to achieve the corporate commitment of “Excitement: Committed to inspiring enthusiasm and spreading joy in the world of mobility” and “Comfort: Committed to providing comfort and peace of mind in the mobility life,” as described in the “Bridgestone E8 Commitment”
