Ride longer, ride further, ride safer

The sport touring tyre with reinforced carcass construction for adventure and heavy touring motorcycles.

• Grip on a wide range of tarmac/weather conditions.
• Dual-compound on rear sizes.
• METZELER Interact™ technology for riding stability, comfort and precision.

Transversal grooves

• Grip the asphalt as single element
• Increase the amount of water drained
• Better interaction with ABS

Increased groove distance on shoulders

• Increase stability in lean
• Precise handling
• Water drainage at all lean angles

Compound on radial sizes

• Full-silica compound with excellent chemical grip in conjunction with the mechanical grip created by the groove layout
• Homogeneous compound emphasizes chemical properties and makes it more resistant to the wear

Contact patch is shorter, wider and has a larger area if compared to that of the ROADTEC™ Z8 INTERACT™

• Reduced compound slipage for better wear
• Reduced compound stress and overheating
• Includes a higher quantity of grooves for more mechanical grip and water drainage
• More rubber in contact with the ground for more chemical grip on both dry and wet

Compound on X-Ply sizes

• Single carbon-black based compound with 30% of silica for fast warm-up and top grip in the dry
• Special resins to enhance compound mobility and adhesive properties for incomparable wet grip

‘Saber’ grooves

• Enhance traction of the compound
• Efficient water drainage
• Reduce wear and increase mileage

‘Drops’ grooves

• Increase traction on low friction surfaces
• Improve stability and motorcycle control in braking
• Accelerate compound warm-up

Compound on radial sizes

• Dual-compound with a 40% - 20% - 40% layout
• Central stripe is balanced in silica and carbon-black for high-speed stability and heat dispersal.
• Side stripe are full silica, similar to front, for excellent chemical grip on wet and low friction surfaces
• Side compound similar to front for homogeneous contact feeling in lean Cap&Base scheme for provides proper heat distribution and thermal stability of the shoulders when under aggressive riding
