The MICHELIN Road Classic rear motorcycle tire combines classic styling with modern tire technology for riders who want dependable performance on iconic motorcycles. This 4.00B-18 size tire has a 64H speed and load rating, bias-ply construction, and tubeless design. Manufactured by MICHELIN and identified by manufacturer and vendor part number 38992, it is designed for compatible classic and retro-style motorcycle applications.
MICHELIN Silica Rain Technology™ helps the compound maintain grip on wet roads, while the tread’s 26% void ratio promotes water evacuation. Compared with the previous generation, the Road Classic provides up to 50% more wet grip, helping support confident braking, acceleration, and cornering in changing weather conditions.
The bias-ply technology uses a reinforced bias casing supported by two crown plies to improve handling stability. Riders can experience up to 50% greater cornering stability and 40% greater straight-line stability than the previous generation. The result is a balanced rear tire suited to everyday riding, touring, and spirited use on classic motorcycles.
The MICHELIN Road Classic has received technical approval for select iconic Triumph® motorcycles, including Bonneville® and Street Twin® models. Confirm the motorcycle manufacturer’s recommended tire size, load rating, speed rating, and tubeless requirements before installation. Professional mounting and balancing are recommended.
