On the streets where Passion is as important as Performance, the new Pirelli Night Dragon grips the heart.
Brand new from Pirelli comes the Night Dragon, the first pavementpeeling muscle tire dedicated to V-Twin cruisers, customs and choppers. Driven by racing technology, the Night Dragon is aggressively
designed for PERFORMANCE and styled for stance; the Night Dragon intimidates when prowling or parked. The Night Dragon is a unique, premium product oriented to Harley- Davidson® and metric-cruiser riders demanding grip performance with forceful style. Today's custom cruisers and hot-rodded V-twins with increased engine sizes, more torque, more horsepower, and upgraded suspensions, create a combination demanding tires dedicated to driving that performance to the pavement of America's highways.
The secret to the Night Dragon's performance is in the exclusive design of its contact patch. It's a new shape and larger dimension allowing for new compounds of increased durability and traction.
Its new structure also provides optimum pressure distribution and unmatched riding comfort.
The Night Dragon's street-wise tread pattern blends biker style with riding performance. Its tread pattern maximizes the contact patch for fast warm up, quickly giving the rider confidence of stability and traction. Meanwhile, the hydrodynamics of its groove placement ensures efficient draining in wet riding conditions; the Night Dragon's front tread design cuts a path through water for the rear, and the calibrated grooves of rear tire disperse the residual water, for controlled grip in all conditions.
The Night Dragon's shoulder-to-shoulder performance advantage is achieved with new front and rear tire profiles. This gives the tires a linear steering response and quick handling. Combined with the
Night Dragon's structural balance between stiffness and flexibility, there is predictable handling at every lean angle.
The Night Dragon is innovative and sporty, inspiring passion in enthusiasts of oxen-powered V-twins who live for hard launches, the echoes of city streets and incredible journeys on the highway.
With a proprietary compound mixed from Pirelli's racing laurels and street experience, the Night Dragon tires are high grip at full lean and full throttle, rising on the latest trend in tire design. The
Night Dragon's tread cut identifies the tires in just a quick glance, setting them apart from all competition.
With the Night Dragon, Pirelli brings its sporting image to the streets of the V-twin, combining its winning heritage with image and sex appeal. The Night Dragon ties the culture of performance to the culture of individuality. The sound, the feel, the freedom, the road and the destination - all redefined by the Night Dragon - providing good looks and performance in a refined product. Power is Nothing Without Control.
