New mid-hard terrain tyre promises improved traction and power delivery, a newly sized mid-soft tyre for 250cc 4-strokes offers less unsprung weight for bike agility, and a new training tyre brings high knob-tearing resistance and riding confidence
Pirelli presents its new Scorpion MX Mid Hard 554 tyres together with several existing range modifications related to tread pattern and sizes in the same week as its 56th Motocross World Championship title is secured on the grounds of Germany. With such an extensive heritage of victories, the success of the Scorpion MX product line remains undoubted and surely will continue with added performances from the new MX Mid Hard 554 and specific product modifications resulting from Pirelli’s hard work and investments in both the AMA Supercross and the MX1/MX2 classes of the FIM Motocross World Championship.
"For really hard, hard ground, it is not easy to find a tire that provides the necessary grip, has a good shelf life, easy to install as possible and it is still priced in the green range. Selecting the right tire can be the outcome of a race to decide, because at almost the same skill level between two tenths of a competitor often decide who will be achieved not least through a good tire.
Many amateur riders look around on the international race in the paddock and see what the stars tires mounted on their rims are, and act accordingly. There may well be that it is not a tire on the market is because the big teams often receive material that is only tested long before the dealer on the shelf. What many do not know is that manufacturers offer, for example, the GP pilot various rubber mixtures of the same profile on different surfaces which can be very helpful for the drivers.

Thanks to its winning experience in off-road with the Scorpion products since 1980 and its knowhow on road tyres, Pirelli is re-entering the enduro street segment with the new SCORPION TRAIL. To obtain a breakthrough product, Pirelli has selected this tyre with an intensive series of real condition tests. The main aim is to provide a multi-purpose tyre tested in the toughest conditions: in different temperature ranges from the North Cape of Africa to Dakar, on long distance runs - collecting and working out on road data from a 6,500 mile route, or in the extreme conditions of the African desert with a rally in Tunisia.
