Metzeler CRUISETEC Motorcycle Tire | Rear MU85 B 16 77H TL | Cruising
- Performance Perfected
- The ultimate V-Twin tire to perfect the performance of the motorcycles of yesterday, today and tomorrow
- Unbelieveable handling, corner stability and line carving
- CRUISETEC™ enhances your motocycle's handling thanks to the combination of legendary Metzeler sport touring derived profiles mated to a muscular carcass.
- In a segment where large and heavy motorcycles are being transformed into high performance machines, CRUISETEC™ features performance-oriented solutions and strong structural support features.
- Immediate response in all conditions, wet or dry
- Dual compound rear sizes with a high rate of silicia promote fast warm-up and chemical grip when the conditions are less than ideal.
- The brush-like tread pattern enhances mechanical grip, keeping your motorcycle glued to the road surface. All-new compound recipe coupled with innovative structural elements maximize the contact patch for even more grip while cornering.
- All of these features combined blend performance with strength to ensure that any rider's V-Twin motorcycle is ready for any situation that lies ahead.
- Consistent handling throughout the entire lifespan of the tire
- The combination of a sturdy tread pattern and constant-curvature contours with dual compound rear tires ensures even wear and enhanced contact patch.
- sport touring like tire profiles ensure even wear and incredible stability in both straight line riding and side-to-side transitions, even with a passenger.
- CRUISETEC™ is designed to match or slightly exceed the mileage of OE V-Twin tires while providing the rider with unmatched riding performance and comfort.
- Carving precision
- Softer shoulder compounds on the dual compound rear tires enhance confidence when pushing the limits.
- Sport touring like profiles give the rider effortless steering with a solid feeling up front no matter the pace.
- Internally, stiffer cords allow more room for thicker rubber, which offers enhanced damping properties. The result is a reduction in the "floating feeling" felt when exiting turns under hard accelerations and nearly eliminates "groove wander" when riding on ran grooves or other rough conditions.
- Quick response in wet conditions
- High silica compounds paired with a forgiving carcass structure and water shedding tread pattern deliver outstanding confidence during inclement weather.
- Designed with the future in mind, CRUISETEC™'s linier contact patch response works with all generations of rider aides such as ABS and traction control.
