Pirelli Night Dragon GT 170/80B-15 TL 77H

The Pirelli Night Dragon GT is a bias-belted cruiser tyre designed for heavy cruiser and touring motorcycles. This rear tyre in size 170/80B-15 is a tubeless fitment rated to load index 77 and speed rating H, making it a practical choice for riders covering serious distance on large-capacity machines.

The Night Dragon GT is part of Pirelli's dedicated cruiser range, targeting riders who prioritise confident, predictable handling and durability on extended tours. The 170/80 profile and 15-inch rim fitment suit the classic proportions of American-style and large touring cruisers.

Have the tyre fitted by a qualified tyre technician using appropriate rim-mounted equipment; incorrect bead seating on a tubeless tyre is a safety risk.
Check cold tyre pressure before every ride and maintain the pressure specified in your motorcycle's owner's manual — over- or under-inflation accelerates uneven wear and affects handling.
Allow a new-tyre break-in period: avoid hard cornering, heavy braking, and aggressive acceleration during the first rides until the full contact patch is fully scuffed in and mould-release compound has worn away.
Inspect the tyre regularly for embedded objects, sidewall cuts, cracking, or bulges; if structural damage is found, replace the tyre before riding.
Do not exceed the tyre's rated load index (77 / 363 kg) or speed rating (H / 210 km/h) under any loading condition.
Do not fit an inner tube inside a TL-marked tyre on a tubeless rim unless specifically directed to do so — this is not an approved repair method for road use.
For extended storage, keep tyres inflated, shielded from direct sunlight and UV, and away from ozone sources (electric motors, fluorescent lighting) and petroleum products.
Unmounted tyres should be stored upright or flat in a cool, dry environment; do not hang them by the bead, as this can cause distortion.
