Fresh rubber on both ends is how a sportbike is meant to feel, and mixing a worn front with a new rear is how riders talk themselves into vague turn-in. This set pairs the Battlax Hypersport S23 front and rear in the most common sportbike fitment on the road, so you replace as a matched pair the way the tire was developed.

What's In The Set

• Front: Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 120/70ZR17 58W, tubeless
• Rear: Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 180/55ZR17 73W, tubeless

Fitment

• The standard fitment for most 600-750cc supersports, including CBR600RR, YZF-R6, ZX-6R, and GSX-R600/750
• Common on sport nakeds and middleweights such as MT-09, Z900, Street Triple, and GSX-8S
• Any bike running 120/70ZR17 front and 180/55ZR17 rear

Fitment Notes and Exclusions

• Many liter bikes take a 190/55ZR17 rear. We build that set too, so check your rear sidewall first.
• Some superbikes run 190/50ZR17 or 200/55ZR17 rears. Those sizes are available as singles in our S23 lineup.
• Confirm both sizes on your current sidewalls before ordering.

Why the Battlax Hypersport S23

The S23 is Bridgestone's current flagship street hypersport tire. The rear runs a triple compound with soft shoulders for corner grip and a harder center for mileage, warm-up is quick enough for canyon mornings, and wet performance took a real step over the S22. It is the do-everything choice for fast street riding with the occasional track day.

Both tires ship together as a matched set.
