The Bridgestone Battlax BT46 rear motorcycle tire is designed for vintage sport and touring motorcycles that require dependable road performance with a classic bias-ply construction. This rear tire features a 150/70-17 size and 69V load and speed rating, making it a suitable replacement for motorcycles specified for this fitment. Its design balances everyday ride quality, handling stability, and long-term usability for riders who value confident performance on paved roads.
Bridgestone updates the Battlax BT46 with a silica-enhanced single-compound rubber formulation on the rear tire. This compound is engineered to support strong grip across a range of riding conditions while helping promote consistent wear over time. The tread and construction work together to provide predictable cornering behavior, responsive handling, and dependable traction during sport-touring use. As a bias-ply tire, the BT46 is suited to applications where a traditional motorcycle tire structure and compliant ride feel are preferred.
The Bridgestone Battlax BT46 rear tire is built for riders seeking a modern replacement for vintage sport and touring motorcycles without moving away from the established characteristics of a bias-ply design. Verify your motorcycle manufacturer’s fitment requirements before installation, including tire size, load rating, speed rating, and front-to-rear compatibility.
