Not sure here but somebody may be able to help if you tell the year of your bike.

Here is the tire. Should work fine but why are you wanting to put a used tire on a bike?

I wouldn't put it on my ultra. That tire has a load rating of 762 lbs. stock tires for a ultra has a load rating of over 900 lbs.

Better check when it was made - last four numbers after dot, first two are the week and last two are year. If it is more than five years old pass - liability laws don't allow them to be mounted or repaired - not worth your life.
