The Metzeler Custom Tour will kick off with MBE Motor Bike Expo in Verona at the end of January and then stop at some of the most iconic European motorcycle rallies with the aim of introducing enthusiasts to a tyre range dedicated to the custom world.
This year the Metzeler brand has organised a seven-stage tour that crosses Europe with the aim to get closer to the enthusiasts of the custom world and introducing them to the Metzeler tyre range designed for these motorcycles.
The Metzeler Custom Tour, the name of the initiative, will start from MBE Motor Bike Expo in Verona over the weekend and end with Wheels & Waves at Lido di Camaiore in October, stopping off at some of the most famous and iconic European motorcycle rallies. These also include the Harley-Davidson European 120th Anniversary celebration in Budapest, to celebrate the 120 years of the Milwaukee-based company, and European Bike Week, Europe’s largest motorcycle gathering.
The German tyre brand and two-wheels specialist will be present in all these events with a booth entirely dedicated to Cruisetec and ME 888 Marathon Ultra, tyres designed for the latest generation of cruisers. Furthermore, on the occasion of Hamburg Harley Days, Harley-Davidson European 120th Anniversary celebration and European Bike Week, in addition to offering a free tyre pressure check-up service, motorcyclists will be able to buy (and have fitted) Metzeler tyres during the rally, thanks to the service present on site. Other initiatives that Metzeler will promote in each of these motorcycle rallies will be communicated shortly.
