Heed 505

The folks at Metzeler created the video below to show riders how its new Interact technology works inside all three of its current street and sportbike tires. Last year we tried out its Roadtech Z6 Interact sport touring tire and came away impressed with its quick warm-up time, neutral and stable handling attributes, as well as the level of traction offered. 

We’ve also had a few laps aboard its Racetec Interact series ultra high-performance street/trackday tire aboard the 2010 Aprilia RSV4R (see sidebar), which come as standard fitment.

Last week we had the opportunity to ride on its latest and greatest rubber the Sportec M5 Interact. These hoops are designed to be the do-it-all solution in Metzeler’s tire line-up developed for use on the streets and racetrack in both wet and dry road conditions. Look for the full-review next week.
