VOLUME ISSUE APRIL , P127 Metzeler Sportec 01 Tires $ Prices Vary www.metzeler.com The Metzeler Sportec 01 is a high-performance supersport street tire with sipes designed to flex and deform based on pace and load. At faster speeds, the grooves dynamically compress to increase the contact patch and lateral grip at high-lean angles. At lower speeds, the grooves remain open to maximize water evacuation. The front uses a high-silica dual compound for increased grip, while the rear features a harder center stripe for more stability. Metzeler offers two versions, the standard and the RS, which is a grippier version for occasional track riding. Yoshimura V2 MT-07 Fender Eliminator Kit Starting at $169 www.yoshimura-rd.com New for 2021-24 Yamaha MT-07 models, Yoshimura's V2 Fender Eliminator kit comes with a base that tucks discreetly under the tail section of the motorcycle and includes model-specific plug-and-play wiring for adding optional turn signals. The taillight assembly choices include LED signals, LED sequential signals or micro signals. A license-plate frame and titanium bolts (in a choice of black, gold or Oil Slick) can also be added to the kit.
