The Metzeler ME 888 Marathon Ultra Rear 240/40R18 79V is a motorcycle rear tyre engineered for long-distance touring and heavy cruiser bikes. It is built to provide stability under load and predictable behaviour across a wide range of road conditions. The profile suits riders who cover high mileages and carry luggage or a pillion with regularity.

Construction uses a carcass tuned to maintain a consistent contact patch and promote even wear across the tread footprint. The compound balances durability with grip and the tread pattern aids water evacuation to preserve wet performance. Thanks to its layout the tyre helps maintain cornering stability at lean, while heat management supports extended mileage on longer rides.

Riders will benefit from improved load capacity and a reassuring steering response when transitioning between straights and bends. Enhanced braking distance characteristics and stable behaviour under weight make this tyre an excellent option for touring riders seeking longevity without compromising safety. It delivers comfort and confidence on multi-day trips.
