The Metzeler ME 888 MARATHON ULTRA tire is, according to user reviews and feedback, a widely appreciated choice for customs thanks to its stable handling and reassuring grip, including on wet roads. Many riders mention more precise cornering behavior, making the bike easier to position and safer at cruising speed.

  • Stable handling, with steering considered more precise in corners
  • Braking perceived as effective on the road
  • Riding comfort often improved after the change
  • Longevity generally considered satisfactory on heavy motorcycles
