150/80B-16 (77H) Dunlop Elite 4 Rear Motorcycle Tire for Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 Forty-Eight XL1200X (ABS) 2014-2018

The Dunlop Elite 4 in 150/80B-16 is a direct size match for the XL1200X Forty-Eight's rear wheel, meaning no guesswork on fitment for 2014–2018 models. Dunlop built this tire specifically around Harley cruiser geometry, so it tracks predictably through corners and holds up well under the Sportster's torque delivery. Tread life is notably longer than stock rubber. Caveat: the stiffer compound needs 20–30 miles to fully warm up and reach optimal grip.
