The Metzeler Roadtec 02 rear motorcycle tire is designed for riders seeking confident handling, dependable wet-weather traction, and a comfortable ride across a broad range of temperatures and road surfaces. This sport-touring tire uses a responsive tread pattern that adapts to riding style, helping provide predictable behavior during upright cruising, cornering, and full-lean riding. The 190/55ZR17 size and (75W) speed rating make it suitable for motorcycles specified for this rear tire application.
With fewer tread grooves, the Roadtec 02 creates a more continuous contact surface to help reduce vibration and road noise while delivering a smooth transition from upright riding to increased lean angles. Its tread design also promotes water evacuation and contact-patch mobility, supporting warm-up, comfort, and grip on wet roads. Increased tread compactness helps improve stability during faster riding, while the pattern remains reactive when changing direction or leaning into corners.
Full-silica compounds are used in both the front and rear Roadtec 02 tire range to enhance chemical adhesion on wet pavement. This rear tire is engineered to provide a balanced combination of riding pleasure, high-performance handling, and safety in changing asphalt and temperature conditions. Verify the manufacturer’s fitment recommendations, wheel compatibility, load requirements, and motorcycle specifications before installation. The Metzeler Roadtec 02 rear tire is identified by manufacturer and vendor part number 4335300.
