The Bridgestone Battlax S22 Hypersport rear tire is engineered for sport motorcycle riders who want responsive handling, dependable cornering performance, and strong dry-road grip. Designed as an evolution of the Battlax S21, the S22 combines updated compound technology with a refined tread pattern to help deliver confident control in a wide range of riding conditions. This rear tire uses the 180/55ZR17 size with a 73W speed rating, making it a performance-focused replacement for compatible hypersport and sport motorcycles.
The Battlax S22 features an improved pattern design that increases tread rigidity for a more direct handling response. The result is precise feedback through turns and a stable, controlled feel during acceleration, braking, and quick transitions. Its tread layout is designed to support consistent contact with the road while helping riders maintain confidence on both winding roads and everyday pavement. The tire’s performance-oriented construction makes it well suited to riders who prioritize agile steering and predictable cornering behavior.
Bridgestone’s front and rear compound technology helps improve dry grip across the usable riding profile, supporting traction when leaning into corners or applying power on dry surfaces. The Battlax S22 rear tire is identified by manufacturer part number 11450 and vendor part number 11450. Confirm that the 180/55ZR17 fitment, 73W rating, wheel specifications, and motorcycle manufacturer requirements match your application before installation. Professional mounting and balancing are recommended for proper performance and safe operation.
