Bridgestone Battlax BT-46 Front Motorcycle Tire 100/90-18 56H

The Bridgestone Battlax BT-46 Front Motorcycle Tire 100/90-18 56H is a bias-ply front tire made in Japan and built with vintage sport and touring motorcycles in mind. Bridgestone designed it to handle a range of riding situations, from urban streets and long touring runs to winding back roads, and the construction includes improvements aimed at wet-weather grip.

The size code 100/90-18 breaks down as follows: 100 is the section width in millimetres, 90 is the aspect ratio as a percentage of that width, and 18 is the rim diameter in inches. The rim diameter must match your wheel, and the full size code should match what is printed on the sidewall of the tire you are replacing. The load index of 56 and speed rating H, which covers speeds up to 130 mph (210 km/h), must meet or exceed what your machine's specification calls for.
