The Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra WW Rear in 170/80R15 77H is a touring rear motorcycle tyre designed for long-distance road use and heavyweight cruisers. It is aimed at riders who cover extensive miles on varied surfaces and need predictable performance for both solo and pillion loads. The tyre is tuned to deliver consistent touring behaviour and enhanced durability for heavy touring bikes and customs.

Constructed with a robust carcass and profile geometry, the tyre features a specialised compound that balances longevity with grip. The tread design promotes effective water evacuation and a stable contact patch that supports confident braking and traction. Reinforcement in the shoulder area improves cornering stability and helps maintain even wear across the surface.

For the rider this results in reliable steering response and a comfortable long‑distance ride without sacrificing safety in wet conditions. Improved mileage and controlled rolling resistance lower running costs, while the reinforced build increases load capacity and resistance to deformation under heavy use. Overall the tyre offers a composed mix of endurance and confidence for touring motorcyclists.
