Shinko 011 Verge 200/50R-18 Radial Rear Motorcycle Tire Zero Degree JLSB Sport Touring

OVERVIEW

The Shinko 011 Verge is a 200/50R-18 radial rear tire built for sport touring motorcycles that demand consistent traction and robust structural reliability at highway speeds. Incorporating Zero Degree Jointless Steel Belted construction within a durable rubber casing, the tire reinforces wheel support and resists deformation under heavy loads. Designed exclusively for the rear axle, this component delivers steady load-bearing capacity and predictable handling characteristics for extended pavement riding.

ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE

Zero Degree Jointless Steel Belted construction reinforces the tire casing and sustains structural integrity during high-speed operation, preventing the belt package from shifting under stress. The radial ply arrangement improves sidewall flex management, which minimizes internal carcass deformation during rapid acceleration and aggressive braking. An optimized tread configuration promotes even wear distribution and stable cornering behavior, ensuring reliable pavement contact and constant steering feedback throughout the tire's lifecycle.
