The Metzeler Roadtec™ 01 SE tire represents the next evolution in sport touring, delivering enhanced handling and grip for supersport and naked motorcycles, while maintaining excellent mileage and wet-weather performance.

Description

The Roadtec™ 01 SE boasts a tread pattern designed with a higher land/sea ratio on the shoulders of both the front and rear tires, giving a muscular presence to sporty tourers. This design maximizes the contact patch during aggressive lean angles, ensuring enhanced cornering thrust and precise directional control. The center section mirrors the land/sea ratio of the original Roadtec™ 01, leveraging its advanced water drainage technologies for reliable wet grip. New slick shoulders further increase grip and safety when cornering at maximum lean angles. Transversal grooves deliver mechanical grip and efficient water drainage. The drop-shaped grooves enhance traction on low-friction surfaces and improve motorcycle stability during braking. The Roadtec™ 01 SE features radial construction, offering superior handling and stability at high speeds.
