Motorcycle Tires - Sports Tires

Sport motorcycle tires are built for grip, quick steering and heat management under hard riding. Shop sport tires from Bridgestone, Dunlop, Metzeler, Michelin and Pirelli, including hypersport tires, supersport tires, track day tires and street-biased sport radials for Canadian riders.

Compound is the trade-off to understand. A softer, stickier compound gives more grip and warms up faster but wears out quicker, which is fine for track days and short aggressive rides. A dual-compound sport tire uses a harder centre for highway mileage and softer shoulders for corner grip, and that is the right choice for most street riders. Canadian riding adds one more factor: cold-weather grip. Track-focused tires never reach temperature on a cool spring morning, so a sport touring or street sport compound is the safer pick for early and late season. Match size, load and speed rating to the sidewall of your current tire.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between sport and sport touring tires? Sport tires prioritise grip and quick turn-in with softer compounds. Sport touring tires use harder compounds for more mileage and better wet and cold-weather performance.

Are track tires worth it for street riding? Usually not. Track compounds need heat to work and stay greasy on cool Canadian roads. A dual-compound street sport tire grips better in real conditions.

Do you offer free shipping in Canada? Yes, on orders over $279.99.
