150/80-16 Motorcycle Tires

27 models in 150/80-16, from 7 brands we stock. Order online for delivery, or have them fitted at the shop in Orange.

What 150/80-16 means

150 is the section width in millimetres, measured across the tread. 80 is the aspect ratio: the sidewall is 80% of the section width, which works out to roughly 120 mm here. 16 is the rim diameter in inches — the wheel this tire mounts on.

On most motorcycles a 150/80-16 is a rear tire.

The sizes listed for each model are the sizes it is made in. Confirm against the size on your own bike before ordering — wheel swaps change fitment.
