Following its success in German PS motorcycle magazine’s May tyre tests the Battlax BT-016 has returned to the winner’s circle after being singled out by Motorrad magazine as having the best wet performance in its 2011 sports test, showing that the new Battlax BT-016 Pro Hypersport is the street tyre to beat.

Using its MotoGP multi-layer compound technology, Bridgestone has re-designed the BT-016 Pro for a balanced performance with outstanding contact feel, stability and grip, even in the wettest conditions.

  Sport-touring tyre which leaves the competition miles behind  
 
Bridgestone’s flagship Battlax BT-023 sport-touring tyre doesn’t just go further to deliver outstanding sports-touring performance - it goes mile upon comfortable mile further. In short, the BT-023 is designed to deliver outstanding mileage and a whole lot more.

Since it was launched in February 2010 it is considered a must-have for today’s touring bikes. The tyre significantly upgrades the BT-021 and its consistent high-level performance in both touring and sport riding provides a wider choice of tyre for larger bikes.

The Battlax BT-023 offers improved mileage and wet performance for touring, as well as meeting the handling expectations of the most demanding sport riders through improved grip and steering control.

 
 
The tyre provides superb wear life and wet cornering, thanks to the re-designed angle-groove pattern and Silica Rich Ex compound with “RC polymer” and is constructed with Bridgestone’s proven Mono Spiral Belt (MSB) technology, which provides top-level grip, shock absorption and straight line stability at high speeds.

The technology also gives improved rolling resistance to reduce fuel consumption and tyre noise.

With a 3 Layer Compound (3LC) on the rear tyre, the shoulder compound gives a reassuring grip through corners, whilst the centre compound’s wide contact area adds improved stability and smoothness when cruising.
