The Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23R gives your sportbike a confident, planted feel whether you are carving backroads or commuting through the week. A new rear edge compound boosts dry grip for stronger drive out of corners, while optimized pattern stiffness adds stability when you push the pace. Its MS-Belt single strand construction keeps weight low for a smooth, responsive ride that feels connected to the pavement.
When the weather turns, the S23R keeps working for you. Pulse Groove technology uses pulse-shaped channels and small center deflectors to guide water away and reduce slip, helping the tire maintain reliable traction on wet surfaces. With a dual compound layout that blends steady center handling with grippy shoulders, the S23R delivers the balance and control riders look for in a high performance rear tire.
