The Bridgestone Battlax T32 front tire is designed for sport-touring motorcycles that demand dependable wet-weather performance, confident handling, and long-lasting wear. This 120/60ZR17 55W radial tubeless tire uses Bridgestone’s advanced tread design and compound technology to deliver balanced performance across daily commuting, touring, and spirited road riding. The tire model is Battlax T32, the brand is Bridgestone, and the manufacturer and listed vendor part number is 12667.
Pulse Groove Technology™ works with Silica Rich compounds to evacuate water more effectively from the contact area, helping maintain traction on wet roads.

Bridgestone testing reports a 7% shorter wet stopping distance compared with the Battlax T31, with no sacrifice in wear life; actual results may vary based on motorcycle setup, riding conditions, road surfaces, and rider behavior.
This front motorcycle tire is built for riders seeking a practical combination of touring mileage and responsive handling.
