The Pirelli NIGHT DRAGON is a high-performance motorcycle tire specifically designed for cruiser and custom V-twin motorcycles, particularly targeting Harley-Davidson models and their competitors. It features advanced EPT (Enhanced Patch Technology) that optimizes the contact area by 8% to ensure superior stability at high speeds and lightning-quick acceleration from powerful V-twin engines. The tire incorporates different tread patterns for front and rear applications, with the front using a softer compound for enhanced braking grip and the rear featuring larger rubber blocks for improved stability and traction. Available in various speed ratings including H-rated (up to 130 mph), V-rated (up to 149 mph), and W-rated (up to 168 mph), the Night Dragon delivers excellent wet and dry weather performance through its carefully designed groove concentration and compactness. The tire typically provides 6,000-8,000 miles of service life while maintaining exceptional grip characteristics that significantly outperform standard OEM cruiser tires. It offers superior ride comfort by effectively isolating road vibrations and provides confident handling over bridge gratings and expansion joints that typically challenge motorcycle riders.
