Description
Michelin - 38992 - Tire - Road Classic - Rear - 4.00B18 - 64H
Size: 4.00B18 Rear — 64H
Michelin's Road Classic is built for vintage and classic bikes. It keeps the old-school look and the old-school sizes, from 19" fronts to 4.00-18 rears, but runs a modern compound and tread for grip and wet traction that period tires never had. A good pick for Shovels, Panheads and choppers.
Features
- A compound mix incorporating Michelin® Silica Rain Technology (SRT), an innovation which combined with a 26% void ratio provides 50% more wet grip than the previous generation (see 1st note)
- Increased cornering and straight-line stability than the previous generation (see 2nd note) - thanks to its bias ply technology and bias casing supported by two crown plies the Michelin® Road Classic tire provides 50% more stability when cornering and 40% more straight-line stability than the previous generation
- Approved on iconic motorcycle models including Triumph® Bonneville T100 and Triumph® Street Twin motorcycles
