The BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 will be the latest “Dan-Totsu”^*1 product in Bridgestone’s BATTLAX premium motorcycle tyres, for which we celebrated the 40 anniversary of its establishment in 2023. In addition to improvements over its predecessor, the BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S22, to the every performance aspect needed for sports riding, this next-generation sports tyre will feature even more exceptional levels of dry grip performance when riding on circuits or cornering on mountain roads. Moreover, the BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S23 employs a newly designed compound in the edge portion of the tread that makes contact with the road when banking at sharp angles to maximize edge grip when cornering and to thereby allow riders to take their sports riding performance to the next level.^*2
