Bringing "more mileage and improved grip" to its successful Storm ST family, of sports/touring tyres, Avon is showing STORM 2 ULTRA to the public at the International Motorcycle Show, in Birmingham's NEC.
With multi-compound Super Rich Silica (SRS) tread, the new rear tyre is claimed to deliver an extra 12% mileage over the original, and highly rated, Storm ST. Changes incorporated in the zero-degree belting system, and modifications to the dynamic stresses within the carcass itself, have increased mechanical grip, giving improved traction in all riding conditions, and even better handling, also overall ride comfort.
Storm 2 Ultra comes in a wide range of S/T suitable sizes, all of which will be available by the end of the year.
