BridgestoneBattlax Hypersport S22 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17)

Using these exclusively for track, they're absolutely incredible tires. They warm up very quickly even in colder conditions. Put against Q3+, these were up to temp on a 50° day where the Q3+s were still hard and didn't inspire any confidence. They seem to have better grip than the Q3+s even after both are warm. The profile is very comfortable and allows a very good feel in and out of corners. Durability seems good, I put around 4 track days on these and should get at least a few more out of them running at intermediate pace. For the price especially, these are extremely hard to beat. Next step up in stickiness is slicks.

I had the original battle axes they came with the bike so when I went to go purchase I found out that they had an upgrade I am so glad I purchased them as a grip amazingly they took my sport bike to the next level if you're a person who loves the twisties like I do you'll be quite content you will have to scrub them a bit as of course you have the oil in the mold that you have to get off

Sticks like glue when hot.Sticks really well even when cold (better than most when cold, especially for a tire that works so well hot).The party piece for these tires is the wet traction though. I was able to do a second gear wheelie (closed course, private circuit in mexico, etc) while riding through STANDING WATER of half an inch or so.I'll be mad when these aren't made anymore.I get 4500mi from these, give or take. I ride like a jerk sometimes and I'm hard on my tires, (see above, wheelies in the wet? Might happen in the dry too!) but these are

Has held up well on my XSR 900 got about 3000 miles on each set I’ve had could probably get more I just like to stay on the safe side. Like everything else they’re more expensive than they should be.

Great value for the money. Looks great on the bike!

longtime rider on these. I've been running this tire set on my bike for about 2-3 years. ive bought a few pairs already and each set has ran perfectly on my xsr900 or more commonly known as fz09 or mt09. ive tested them on the track and they're great for my riding level. never felt like i needed more tire

Love this tire. I've run these on my ninja and my r6. I recommend them to anyone looking for recommendations on a good grippy street tire. These have a new manufacturer date on them to anyone worried about Amazon selling "old stock" tires. Would/will by again

Purchased front and rear Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S22 in 120/70 ZR17 & 180/50 ZR17 from Chaparral Motorsports. Shipping was not free as these items are not Prime. The price for both tires with shipping & tax included was much cheaper than Cycle Gear, Revzilla, or any of the other major distributors. Both tires were received within a week. Will buy from Chaparral Motorsports again, they have great prices and excellent customer service. And the tires are perfect for any scenario: from winding back roads to the track, the level of grip and traction is a cut above the competition.
