Bridgestone

The Bridgestone Battlax S22 Motorcycle Tyre is designed for road riding with a focus on grip, stability and responsive handling in dry and wet conditions. Its advanced compound technology, revised tread pattern and updated casing construction help you maintain consistent contact with the road during braking, cornering and acceleration.Discover the key features and benefits of this motorcycle tyre:3LC Front Compound Technology: Bridgestone's 3 Layer Compound design uses a harder compound in the centre of the front tyre with softer shoulder compounds, helping you maintain stability during braking and motorway riding while increasing edge grip through corners for more predictable front-end feedback and improved confidence during lean transitions.5LC Rear Compound Technology: The rear tyre uses Bridgestone's 5 Layer Compound structure with three separate compound zones across the tread, allowing you to benefit from a durable centre section for mileage, a medium shoulder compound for traction during acceleration and softer edge compounds for increased grip at higher lean angles, resulting in stable power delivery and controlled corner exits.RC Polymer & NanoPro-Tech Compound: RC Polymer technology improves silica distribution throughout the rubber compound while NanoPro-Tech reduces internal friction and heat build-up, helping the tyre maintain flexibility across a wider temperature range so you achieve dependable wet weather grip, improved tread contact and consistent performance during everyday riding and longer journeys.Revised Tread Pattern Design: The updated groove layout increases road contact and water evacuation efficiency, helping you maintain traction in wet conditions while supporting stable handling during changes in direction and reducing the unsettled feel that can develop on damp road surfaces.Mono Spiral Belt Construction: Lightweight steel cords are wrapped continuously around the tyre circumference to improve stability at speed and reduce unnecessary vibration, helping you achieve smoother handling response and more controlled performance during high-speed road riding.Optimised Contact Patch Design: The S22 uses an updated contact patch shape that increases the tyre's footprint during cornering and braking, helping you maintain stronger grip under load while supporting more consistent steering feel across varying road conditions.The Bridgestone Battlax S22 Motorcycle Tyre helps you achieve stable handling, reliable grip and predictable road feedback during everyday riding, fast road use and weekend touring. Its compound and construction technologies support consistent performance across changing road and weather conditions, helping you maintain confidence throughout longer rides and regular commuting. Adding the S22 to your motorcycle setup gives you a practical tyre option focused on road control, durability and responsive handling.Please note: Tyre size shows if that specific tyre is a Tubeless Tyre (TL) or Tubed Tyre (TT).Tyre Specification Information - OE:120/70 ZR17 M/C (58W) TL - Front - OE for S22 G (Ninja 1000SX '20 on)120/70 ZR17 M/C (58W) TL - Front - OF for S22 N (ZX-6R 636 '19 on)180/55 ZR17 M/C (73W) TL - Rear - OE for S22 N (ZX-6R 636 '19 on)180/55 ZR17 M/C (73W) TL - Rear - OE for S22 G (Ninja 1000SX '20 on)200/55 ZR17 M/C (73W) TL - Rear - OE for S22 SDR (SuperDuke R '20 on)
