Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra200/50 ZR17 M/C 75W TL Rear Tyre

The Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra 200/50 ZR17 M/C 75W TL is a rear motorcycle tyre made for cruiser, custom and touring motorcycles that need reliable long distance performance, stable handling and consistent wear. It is a Cruiser and Custom tyre with a radial, tubeless construction in the 200/50 ZR17 size and uses a load index of 75 and W speed rating, which means a maximum load of 387 kg and speed of up to 270 km/h when ridden to the applicable tyre and motorcycle standards. The 200 mm width and 50-series profile give the dimensional characteristics expected of a wide rear cruiser tyre, while the ME 888 Marathon Ultra's structure is engineered around high mileage and stable road behaviour and Metzeler utilise a wide, relatively flat profile to spread out the stresses across the footprint and back towards the sidewall. The tread has compound bridges in between the transverse grooves to give the ME 888 a more solid tread structure and encourage even wear, while the groove arrangement is also used to evacuate water away from the contact patch to help it maintain grip on wet surfaces. This Metzeler rear tyre is recommended for cruisers, tourers and custom versions, particularly those motorcycles that have been built for long road trips but its compatibility will depend on the motorcycle manufacturer's approved tyre size, load index, speed rating, rim specification and fitment requirements, as while the 200/50 ZR17 size is listed within the ME 888 Marathon Ultra range, it's best to confirm the exact motorcycle fitment before ordering rather than relying on just the tyre dimensions. For riders who are looking for Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra 200/50 ZR17 75W rear tyres, the combination of the tubeless radial construction, cruiser oriented design, wear focused tread engineering and water evacuation on wet roads makes the specification relevant to long distance cruising.
