This tyre is adopted with the two aims of adding to the impressive look of this model with wide, impressive tyres and providing light, enjoyable handling. That’s what the rear radial tyre on the FZ16 does. Because of their construction, radial tyres have good firmness that prevents excess distortion of the tyre shape when hitting bumps on rough roads. That means smoother riding. Compared to conventional bias tyres of the same size, radial tyres are much lighter, which contributes to lightening the machine’s rear end. It lets the rider enjoy handling with a pleasurable feeling like running barefoot.
