The Bridgestone Battlax BT46 rear tire is designed for vintage sport and touring motorcycles that require dependable handling, long-lasting performance, and a classic bias-ply construction. This 150/80-16 71V tire combines Bridgestone engineering with a fitment-focused design for riders who want confident performance on everyday roads, touring routes, and spirited rides. The tubeless construction supports convenient installation on compatible motorcycle wheels while maintaining the practical performance expected from a modern replacement tire.
An updated silica single-compound formulation in the rear tire is engineered to balance grip, performance, and wear. The compound helps provide reliable traction across changing road conditions while supporting consistent handling during acceleration, cornering, and braking. The Battlax BT46 is developed as a practical upgrade for motorcycles that originally used the Battlax BT45 platform, making it a suitable choice for riders seeking contemporary tire technology without changing the intended character of a vintage sport or touring motorcycle.
With its 150/80-16 size, 71V load and speed rating, rear-wheel application, and bias-ply construction, the Bridgestone Battlax BT46 offers a well-rounded replacement solution for compatible motorcycles. Always verify the motorcycle manufacturer’s fitment specifications, load requirements, wheel compatibility, and recommended tire pressures before installation. The manufacturer part number and vendor part number for this tire are 11677.
