COMPOUND

Silica compounds for both front and rear that improve performance in both wet and dry conditions. Radial rear sizes are bi-compound with a softer stripe on shoulders thanks to different plastifing resins that improve grip while cornering. Front compound is similar to the rear central one, allowing high stability and wear resistance.

STRUCTURE

The high stiffness structure that supports the profile and guarantees the sporty handling is inspired in our experience in SuperSport. Structure cords have a superior linear density and higher stiffness, to increase lateral thrust for better trajectory precision and stability when leaning. Moreover, this guaranties that the original performances are maintained throughout the entire tyre life.

TREAD DESIGN

The tread pattern design derives from that of the DIABLO ROSSO™ IV that provides an optimized footprint geometry at all lean angles, excellent dynamic response, greater control and stability. Better performance at high speed with a quicker handlebar response. Superb grip while both accelerating and braking, thrust boost in extreme lean angles and brilliant traction exiting the corner.

PROFILES

Inspired from Supersport with a multi-radius approach that increase the sporty feeling with a progressive and confident behavior thanks to the rounded profile and increased overall width.

The Pirelli Night Dragon offer better adhesion, road holding and looks than standard tyres for custom and cruiser motorcycles. Designed for motorcyclists that need tyres with excellent grip but also last in high mileage scenarios. Excellent performance and great fun to ride with a good balance between reliability and life of the tyre. Special research of the contact patch in order to ensure great stability at high speeds and quick acceleration. Optimized for V-Twin engines with more power and higher torque.
