The Bridgestone BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S22 is a premium rear motorcycle tire designed for modern street sport bikes. Combining advanced compound technology with an updated tread pattern, the S22 delivers responsive handling, strong dry grip, and confident wet-weather performance. Its 180/55ZR17 73W radial tubeless construction is suited for riders seeking balanced performance during everyday street riding and spirited sport riding.
The S22 uses new front and rear compounds to enhance dry grip while maintaining the long-lasting wear characteristics expected from a high-performance Bridgestone motorcycle tire. The updated rear compound is engineered to support dependable traction across changing road conditions, helping riders maintain control through acceleration, cornering, and braking. The tread design also contributes to effective water evacuation and consistent contact with the road surface.
An updated pattern design increases tread rigidity, improving steering response and handling precision. These refinements help the tire feel stable and predictable while transitioning through corners or responding to quick changes in direction. The Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S22 has earned recognition in professional sport tire testing, including back-to-back wins in the Motorrad Magazine sport tire test. Manufacturer: Bridgestone.
