| Description | - Enhanced constructions, profiles, compounds and tread patterns allows the Q5S to provide lighter and nimbler handling and improved dry and wet grip to make it even more user-friendly all while maintaining class-leading durability
- Intuitive Response Profileโข (IRP) technology allows greater latitude in line choice while cornering, plus amazingly linear steering
- Optimized tread pattern design aids in quicker warm-up times and improved wear characteristics
- Updated front and rear compounds off improved grip and warm-up times
| Tire - Sportecโข M9 RR - Rear - 180/55ZR17 - 73W The strong structure provides a quick and predictable response to riding inputs whilst at the same time delivers an enjoyable, smooth and relaxed riding experience, The Supersport tire for your daily leans, enhancing the pleasure of riding without worrying about the unexpected, be that changing tarmac or weather conditions, METZELER SPORTEC* M9 RR innovative chord technology has contributes to a larger space for the rubber to dynamically perform, without effecting the stiffness, Extended dual-compound for both front and rear sizes optimizes abrasion resistance and extends mileage by more than 10% over the Sportec M7 RR, 100% full silica prevents overheating and preserves tire integrity, for the maximum performance throughout the entire lifespan, Mid-lean groove layout provides massive mid-lean water drainage and painless feedback while cornering, Narrow slick center carves through standing water while longitudinal grooves maximze water drainage, Slick shoulders for continuous compound footprint in full lean

| Tire - Road 6 - Rear - 180/55ZR17 - (73W) MICHELINยฎ 2CT+ Technologyโข, which has been standard on the rear tire, is now applied to the front tire for better rigidity at lean, and more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration or heavy braking, compared to the previous generation, 15% more grip than the MICHELINยฎ Road 5 tire in wet conditions thanks to 100% MICHELIN? Silica Technologyโข tread compounds and a new tread pattern featuring MICHELINยฎ Water Evergrip Technologyโข (see 1st note), The MICHELINยฎ Road 6 tire delivers 10% longer tread life compared to the previous generation (see 2nd note), (1) Based on internal lap time testing conducted in '20 in Fontange, France on wet surfaces using a '18 SUZUKI 1250 Bandit S fitted with 120/70 ZR 17 front and 180/55 ZR17 rear tires comparing MICHELINยฎ Road 6 and MICHELINยฎ Road 5 tires. Actual results may vary., (2) Based on external wear testing conducted in '20 by Dekra in France using a '14 BMW K1300R fitted with 120/70 ZR 17 front and 180/55 ZR17 rear tires comparing weight loss of MICHELINยฎ Road 6 and MICHELINยฎ Road 5 tires after 2500 miles. Actual results may vary.
