Pirelli bringing new 125cc GP/Moto3 rear tyre to North America

Pirelli

Pirelli has expanded its 2014 racing range again. The new 115/70R17 Slicks come in 3 compounds (SC0, SC1, & SC2) and match up with the current 100/70R17 slick front. These new tyres were developed in Europe with top Moto3 and 125GP teams and provide improved handling, performance, and grip over the recently discontinued 125/70R17 rear slick size.

“Pirelli continues to lead the market with its large roadracing range” commented Jeff Johnston, Pirelli Tire North America Roadracing Manager. If you ride a small bore GP, 600 SS or Superbike, Pirelli offers a complete range of track day, slicks, intermediates and rain tyres for almost any racing or track day application.”

These new rear slicks are readily available from Pirelli roadracing tyre distributors and vendors.
