180/55ZR17 (73W) TL Rear Tire Bridgestone T31 GT

BATTLAX-T31
TOURING MOTORCYCLE TIRE

The special features of the new Battlax Sport Touring T31 lie in the improved performance in wet conditions and the maximum contact feel with the road. This allows the rider to feel more secure in any weather while enjoying the fun and thrill of the ride.

Bridgestone employs advanced NanoPro-Tech™ technology in the front tire, which increases the silica content at the molecular level in the rubber compound. This not only improves the flexibility of the rubber but also enhances grip on various surfaces as well as in wet and low-temperature conditions.

The rear tire features a 3LC rubber compound with a cap-and-base structure: the softer outer rubber compound provides outstanding grip, while the inner compound is more stable and gives the tire optimal stiffness.

The tread pattern of the T31 has a higher number of grooves in the shoulder area, allowing for better water drainage. In the central area of the rear tire, there are only a few grooves. This guarantees stability, especially at high speeds. The contact area is also up to 7 percent larger, which offers an added safety advantage, particularly when cornering.
