The Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 rear tire is designed for sport motorcycle riders who want confident handling, strong dry-road grip, and dependable performance in changing conditions. This radial tubeless tire features a 180/55ZR17 size and 73W speed rating, making it a performance-focused choice for compatible motorcycles. Bridgestone engineered the Battlax Hypersport S23 to deliver responsive cornering and predictable control for both spirited street riding and demanding sport applications.
A new tread compound on the rear shoulder helps enhance dry grip, giving the tire improved traction while accelerating out of corners and during aggressive lean angles. The updated tread pattern uses Bridgestone Pulse Groove technology to promote efficient water drainage and maintain grip on wet pavement. Optimized pattern stiffness supports balanced traction, steering stability, and consistent road contact across a variety of riding conditions.
The Battlax Hypersport S23 rear tire also provides improved wear performance, with an 8% increase in rear tire wear durability compared with the preceding design. This helps extend usable riding time without sacrificing the handling characteristics expected from a high-performance sport tire. The manufacturer and vendor part number for this Bridgestone tire is 15926. Verify motorcycle fitment, required tire specifications, and front-to-rear tire pairing before installation.
