<p>A motorcycle tire has a unidirectional tread pattern having an intended rotational direction (R). The tread portion is provided on each side of the tire equator with main oblique grooves (11). Each of the main oblique grooves (11) comprises a main portion (13) extending from the tire equator (C) toward a tread edge (2t) while inclining toward the direction opposite to the intended rotational direction (R). The main portion (13) includes a part (15) overlapping the tire equator (C) which part has an inclination angle (±) of not more than 20 degrees with respect to the tire equator (C). The main portion (13) has such a dimension that the circumferential ends (13i,13o) thereof are positioned outside a ground contacting area (10) of the tire in a normally inflated loaded state of the tire at the camber angle of 0 degree. The land ratio of a tread center region between the ground contact edges (2t) is set in a rage of from 75 to 95 %.</p> |
