The Bridgestone Battlax BT028 G rear motorcycle tire is engineered for riders who want dependable handling, wet-weather traction, and long-lasting performance. This radial tire uses a modern directional tread pattern to help channel water away from the contact area, supporting confident cornering and braking on wet roads while promoting even tread wear. The 200/50R18 size, 76V speed rating, and tubeless construction make it a suitable rear replacement for select Yamaha VMX1700 V-Max motorcycles.
Bridgestone incorporates a dual-radius profile into the rear tire design to create a larger footprint as the motorcycle leans. This profile helps increase traction during acceleration and cornering while also supporting consistent mileage throughout the tire’s service life. Aramid belting contributes to high-load stability, helping the tire maintain its shape and provide predictable road manners during touring, commuting, and spirited riding. The BT028 G is designed to deliver balanced performance without sacrificing rider feedback or stability.
This Bridgestone Battlax BT028 G rear tire is listed for 2009 through 2014 Yamaha VMX1700 V-Max applications, subject to the motorcycle’s original equipment specifications and fitment requirements. It is available in blackwall and whitewall configurations, allowing riders to select the appearance that best suits their motorcycle. The manufacturer part number and vendor part number are both 129311. Confirm the required sidewall finish, tire size, load and speed ratings, and motorcycle fitment before installation. Professional mounting and balancing are recommended for proper performance and safe operation.
