The Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S21 rear tire is designed for riders seeking responsive handling, strong dry-road grip, and dependable performance across changing riding conditions. Sized 160/60R17 with a (69W) speed rating, this motorcycle tire is engineered for speeds up to 168+ mph when properly fitted and maintained. Its sport-focused construction supports confident cornering and precise road feedback for performance-oriented street riding.
The S21 uses Bridgestone Enhanced Micro-contact-patch Compound (EMC) technology in both the front and rear shoulder compounds. This compound design increases grip potential while improving thermal stability, helping the tire maintain consistent performance as operating temperatures rise. The result is improved dry grip and wear life without sacrificing wet-weather performance, making the Battlax Hypersport S21 a balanced choice for riders who want sport-tire capability for everyday road use.
Three-dimensional cross grooves are designed to optimize tread rigidity and improve contact with the road. This helps promote stable handling, predictable cornering, and consistent traction as the tire transitions through turns. The tread design also supports reliable water management, contributing to confidence on damp pavement while preserving the responsive characteristics expected from a hypersport tire.
