This is the 180/55ZR17 rear in the Shinko 005 Advance radial line, Shinko item number 87-4016. The 005 Advance is Shinko's aramid-belted street radial, built in South Korea, and it is the value option in our tire range: a Z-rated tubeless radial in the size these bikes run, at a much lower price than the premium sport lines.
180/55-17 is the stock rear size on most of the current 600-class sportbikes.
This is a street tire. Shinko does not position the 005 Advance for track use, and if you ride track days or want the most grip you can get on the road, a dedicated sport tire such as the Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 or Racing Street RS12, both in stock in this size, is built for that.
Key Technology & Design
Aramid-belted radial construction
Shinko builds the 005 Advance on an aramid-belted radial casing, which they state is there for high-speed capability.
Large-block tread pattern
The tread uses large tread blocks, which Shinko says are chosen for braking, cornering and acceleration.
Water-clearing grooves
Shinko states the grooves are shaped to move water away on wet roads.
