Avon Tyres has released a total of 11 new tyres across its popular Cobra Chrome, Spirit ST and 3D Supersport lines, including seven new sizes and four established sizes that have been optimised to suit a wider range of motorcycles.
The latest additions to Avon’s extensive product offering help to better match today’s market requirements by increasing coverage across diverse model ranges, from older sports bikes to popular cruisers and small to medium-displacement models from emerging brands.
The Cobra Chrome range sees the largest expansion, with seven new specifications released. Four existing sizes have been upgraded with an increase in load and speed ratings, or have undergone a change in construction from bias to bias-belted. This allows many additional cruiser enthusiasts to fit Cobra Chrome on their bikes, enabling them to experience the tyre’s high stability and excellent wet braking. Three all-new sizes are also included in this latest line extension, extending the Cobra Chrome fitment coverage across bikes such as the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy, Sport Glide, Low Rider S and ST, as well as the current-generation Honda GL1800 Gold Wing series.

The launch of the new Spirit ST sizes (110/70ZR17 front and 150/60ZR17 rear) caters to a range of popular small to medium displacement models that have been released over the last decade. Such models prevail among younger riders who rely on their bike as their sole vehicle, and the Spirit ST’s state-of-the-art tread compound and high mileage serves as an excellent choice for this segment.
Two new sizes also join the 3D Supersport offering, with the arrival of the 120/60ZR17 front and 190/50ZR17 rear allowing owners of older sports bikes and roadsters and riders of current-model Japanese sport-tourers to take advantage of the tyre’s optimised handling and maximised grip.
“These latest additions are designed not only to enhance the riding experience for our loyal customers, but also to reach the next generation of riders by expanding fitment across the models they ride most,” explains Don Argento, Manager Motorcycle Sales & Marketing North America, Avon Tyres.
“Avon Tyres remains committed to delivering unparalleled quality and ability, and it is exciting to extend the availability of three of our most popular road tyre ranges to an even broader selection of motorcycles. With its distinctive design and proven performance, Cobra Chrome continues to complement cruisers and tourers in both curb appeal and riding experience, and these new size additions represent a significant step forward for the range.”
