The Avon 3D Ultra Sport is highly regarded by motorcycle riders for its exceptional feedback, confidence-inspiring grip, and predictable handling characteristics.

  • Predictable and linear handling in corners
  • Fast warm-up times
  • High levels of dry grip and stability

Cons

  • Rapid rear tire wear, particularly under spirited riding
