The Silica Plus Compound offers outstanding grip in varied weather conditions and a consistent wear rate for long-distance touring.
They enhance grip in wet road conditions, eliminate uneven tread wear, and lock tread blocks to maintain stiffness under load.
The Supermaxx ST is developed for sport touring motorcycles and excels on paved roads. It is not designed for aggressive off-road use.
This technology improves the tyre's structural rigidity, leading to enhanced stability and better performance during cornering.
The Supermaxx ST offers a 15% increase in wet grip and significantly improved cornering grip due to its advanced construction and compound.
Always refer to your motorcycle's owner manual or the sticker on the motorcycle for the specific recommended tyre pressures for your bike. Maxxis may also provide general guidelines on their website.
While technically possible, it is generally recommended to use matching tyre brands and models on the front and rear for optimal performance and handling characteristics. Consult a professional if considering mixed brands.
Check for punctures, inspect the rim for damage or corrosion, and ensure the valve stem is properly seated and not leaking.
Verify correct tyre pressure, check wheel alignment and balance, and ensure riding style is not excessively harsh on one area of the tread.
Ensure tyre pressure is correct and the tread is not excessively worn. Clean the tyre surface to remove any contaminants that might be affecting grip.
The tyre may need re-balancing. Ensure the wheel is properly mounted and that there are no external factors causing the vibration.
Setup: The Maxxis Supermaxx ST tyre set, comprising a 120/70-17" front tyre and a 190/50-17" rear tyre, is designed for a wide range of middleweight and heavyweight sport touring motorcycles. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure correct mounting, balancing, and tire pressure. Incorrect installation can compromise performance and safety.
Compatibility: Verify that your motorcycle's wheel sizes are compatible with 17-inch rims and that the tyre dimensions (120/70-17" front, 190/50-17" rear) are within your motorcycle manufacturer's specifications. Consult your motorcycle's owner manual or a qualified technician for confirmation.
Care: Maintain proper tyre pressure as recommended by Maxxis and your motorcycle manufacturer. Regularly inspect tyres for wear, damage, or embedded objects. Clean the tyres periodically with mild soap and water to remove road grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents, which can degrade the rubber compound. Ensure consistent alignment and balance for optimal tread wear and performance.
