The Metzeler Sportec 01 RS rear motorcycle tire is designed for riders who demand responsive handling and a high level of grip on both the road and track. This performance-focused tire uses Metzeler road racing expertise to provide confident traction, precise feedback, and controlled cornering for sport motorcycles equipped with a 190/55ZR17 rear fitment.
Featuring Metzeler Dynatread adaptive tread design technology, the Sportec 01 RS is engineered to adjust its contact behavior according to riding conditions and lean angle. The tread pattern supports consistent road contact during acceleration, braking, and cornering, helping riders maintain stability while exploring the tire’s performance range. Its ZR speed rating and (75W) load and speed designation make it suitable for high-performance motorcycle applications when matched to the manufacturer’s approved fitment requirements.
The high-contrast sidewall design gives the tire a distinctive appearance that complements modern sport motorcycles, while the construction reflects Metzeler’s focus on performance-oriented road use. This rear tire is intended for compatible motorcycles requiring a 190/55ZR17 size and should be installed with a properly matched front tire. Always verify vehicle fitment, tire clearance, load requirements, and recommended inflation pressure in the motorcycle manufacturer’s documentation before installation. Manufactured by Metzeler and identified by manufacturer and vendor part number 4599800, the Sportec 01 RS combines road usability with track-influenced performance for demanding riders.
