I’m a big fan of the Bridgestone Battlax range of tires. I’ve had nearly all of them on my bikes at one point, and I’m currently running the Battlax S22 on my bike, and needless to say, it’s one of my favorite tires out there. For 2024, Bridgestone is out to make us sportbike and naked bike riders even happier, as it has just announced the new Battlax Hypersport S23.
As the name suggests, the Battlax Hypersport S23 is the evolution of the Battlax S22, and promises to deliver everything we love about the S22, but even better. According to Bridgestone, the new Battlax S23 offers various performance improvements over its predecessor, but remains to be a tire designed for sporty riding on asphalt. Being categorized as a hypersport tire, the Battlax S23 has to be able to put up to rigorous conditions both on the street and on the track. Bridestone promises this with newly designed compounds for improved grip when cornering at all angles.
