Bridgestone has announced it will launch the Battlax Racing Street RS12 premium sports motorcycle tire in January 2026 in Europe and North America, and in February 2026 in Japan.
Developed under the concept ‘From Circuit to Street’, the RS12 incorporates race tire technology to offer the highest dry grip performance in Bridgestone’s road-legal Battlax line-up.
The tire is equipped with a compound developed based on technologies built up through racing tire development. It also features a new tread pattern with an optimized groove ratio to deliver superior grip performance through enhanced tire rigidity and an increased contact area during cornering.
