Avon’s Venoms are an excellent choice for touring and cruiser tires. Available in every size and style, these premium tires offer lightweight, smooth performance and exceptional handling.


Avon’s Supermoto Pro-Xtreme Rains are lightweight, softer compound tires developed specifically for Supermoto, offering exceptional traction and cornering.


Avon’s Distanzias feature a rugged tread pattern and a rubber compound that gives equally great traction on both wet and dry roads. The Distanzias are an excellent choice for larger capacity dual-sport bikes.

iders who have been around for a while are the riders who won’t settle for anything other than what they want, and that’s true whether they’re focused in the sport market, the touring market, cruising, off-road riding or racing. A knowledgeable customer, someone with some years in the saddle, knows what they want. That definitely applies to the tires they put on their bike.
     You won’t go wrong showing these vets what Avon has for them. Heck, you probably won’t even have to show them–they’ll already know it. A motorcycle tire has to be a lot more than just black, round and able to hold air. Tires are the bike’s connection to the road or the track, and good tires–the kind savvy riders shop for–will deliver crisp handling, great mileage, they’ll perform in both wet and dry conditions, they’ll run cool and they’ll last. And that, in a nutshell, is a description of Avon.
     Avon tires are premium tires for premium riders. Because of that they’re easy to sell. Making things even easier, those premium Avons don’t carry a premium price. Whether they’re for sport, touring, cruising or for those increasingly popular dual-sport Supermoto machines, Avons are all priced right in line with the competition, and there’s an Avon for every occasion.
     Sport riders and sport tourers can head straight to the Azaro STs and SPs. These tires, offered in 18 different sizes, feature Avon’s Advanced Variable Belt Density (A-VBD) construction, a carcass design using a system of wound Aramid fibers for enhanced stability both straight-up and leaned-over. And the Azaro rears have Avon’s SBC (Spiral Belted Carcass) technology to absorb those added stresses of hard acceleration and hard braking, so common in sport riding. The Azaros are great in the wet, too. Their tread pattern actually forces water out from under them. The SP and Pro Series Azaros take all this even further. These tires come with special compounds and tread patterns developed especially for the track. They really get it done in super-street or track-day situations.
Everyday street riders can get all they need in the Avon Venom lineup. Whether it’s cruising, power cruising, high-load touring or day-in/day-out commuting there’s a Venom that’ll make it better. With a sequential multi-arc tread pattern an Avon Venom deals up a light, sportbike feel and a quiet ride. Venoms make a bike handle easier, corner better and feel like it’s just shed a couple hundred pounds. That nimble Venom feel is especially welcome in city traffic. These tires have an exceptionally low rolling resistance, they run cool and the mileage is great.
And premium Avons aren’t just for the paved roads. The Avons for dual-sport and Supermoto, the Gripsters, Distanzias, Distanzia Supermotos, and Supermoto Pro-Xtreme Rains, are all top-shelf choices for the trail. The Gripsters are great for dual-sport, perfect for bikes street-ridden one day, trail-ridden the next. Avon’s Distanzias, the AM43 and AM44, are especially suited for those larger capacity dual-sport bikes, and the Distanzia Supermotos and Supermoto Pro-Xtreme Rains are DOT street-legal Avons developed just for Supermoto. Their lightweight construction and softer compounds make them direct descendants of Avon’s race-only tires. Nimble in corners, stable on the straights, their road holding–wet or dry–is world class.
