Maxxis MA-XTR 140/80-18 Tyre

Description

Maxxis MA-XTR 140/80-18 Motorcycle Tyre is designed for adventure motorcycle riders who need dependable performance on highways, paved roads, gravel tracks, and moderate off-road terrain. Part of the Maxxis Maxxventure XTR series, this tyre is developed for mixed-surface adventure riding, offering a balance between on-road comfort and off-road capability. Its versatile tread design makes it a suitable option for adventure touring, weekend trail exploration, and long-distance journeys where road conditions can change along the way.

With its 140/80-18 tyre size, this tyre features a nominal section width of 140 mm, an aspect ratio of 80%, and compatibility with an 18-inch rim on motorcycles designed for this specification. Its adventure-oriented tread pattern is engineered to support traction on loose surfaces while maintaining predictable handling on paved roads. The tread arrangement is also designed to help reduce road noise and provide a more comfortable riding experience during extended journeys. Actual grip and handling will vary depending on tyre pressure, terrain, weather, and riding style.

The Maxxis MA-XTR rear tyre also incorporates a stepped structure behind the central tread blocks, designed to improve tread rigidity and enhance stability during acceleration and straight-line riding. Combined with its adventure-oriented rubber compound and multi-pitch tread arrangement, it aims to deliver a balanced riding experience across different surfaces. The 140/80-18 MA-XTR is specified as load index 70 and speed rating Q, with tubeless (TL) construction. This corresponds to a rated load of up to 335 kg per tyre and a speed rating of up to 160 km/h under specified conditions. Always confirm your motorcycle’s recommended tyre size, rim compatibility, and operating limits before purchase.
