Bridgestone has announced that its Battlax Hypersport S23 tyres will be fitted as original equipment on Kawasaki’s latest sport tourer, the Ninja 1100SX.
This pairing promises to deliver unparalleled performance and versatility, making the Ninja 1100SX a standout in the world of motorcycles.
With an increased engine displacement, Kawasaki has enhanced the power and thrill of sport riding. Designed to effortlessly glide through city streets and dominate long-distance tours, the bike retains its signature aggressive styling while integrating modern-day conveniences such as the Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS), a USB Type-C power socket, and seamless smartphone connectivity.
Through decades of collaboration with Kawasaki Motors, Bridgestone has been instrumental in delivering value to an array of motorcycles, and this partnership continues to push boundaries.
At the heart of this synergy is Bridgestone’s Battlax Hypersport S23, a next-generation sports tyre that promises exceptional performance across a spectrum of riding conditions. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the S23 features an innovative tread pattern that balances stiffness in the contact patch with superior water drainage. This ensures stability on wet roads and exceptional grip during both straight-line rides and deep lean angles.
The tyre’s optimised shape and construction enhance the handling dynamics of the Ninja 1100SX. For riders, this means a heightened sport-touring experience, whether they’re navigating tight corners or cruising down open highways.
Bridgestone’s commitment to motorsport remains at the core of its design ethos. Using racing as a “mobile laboratory,” the brand continues to refine its technology under extreme conditions, translating these learnings into high-performance tyres for everyday use.
The Battlax Hypersport S23 is the latest embodiment of this philosophy, crafted under Bridgestone’s “From Circuit to Street” concept. This ensures that cutting-edge technology developed on the track finds its way into tyres that promise reliability, safety, and excitement for everyday riders.
