INCREDIBLE ALL-AROUND PERFORMANCE FOR V-TWIN TOURING AND CRUISER MOTORCYCLES
Multi-Tread Technology: The rear tire uses two different compounds in the same tread.
A long-wearing compound in the centre provides high mileage for straight-line cruising.
Lateral-grip compounds on the shoulders offer enhanced grip and handling when leaning into corners.
Enhanced Performance: The updated design and compound formula are expected to provide an average increase of approximately 25% in mileage over its predecessor. The increased “sea-ratio” on the shoulders of the tread pattern also enhances wet-weather performance.
Robust Construction: The tire features a cut-breaker carcass construction with aramid cords, creating a more robust casing that can handle the significant weight and torque of large V-twin motorcycles. This contributes to improved handling, stability, and load-carrying capabilities.
Handling: Riders report the AE2 offers more neutral steering characteristics and greater stability at increased lean angles compared to the original.
