<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a motorcycle tire capable of maintaining riding comfort and steering stability, and improving rolling resistance performance and drainage performance. <P>SOLUTION: A plurality of inclined main grooves 11 each including a main portion 13 extending from the tire equator C side to the tread end 2t side while inclined toward the later reaching side S2 in a tire rotation direction are provided at intervals in a tire circumferential direction on an outer surface 2S of a tread portion 2. The main portion 13 includes a portion 15 extending along the tire equator C or across the tire equator C. The portion 15 on the equator is angled at 20 degrees or less with respect to the tire equator C. In a state that a middle position 15c of the length L1 in the tire circumferential direction of the portion 15 on the equator of the main portion 13 coincides with a middle position 10c of the maximum length L2 in the tire circumferential direction of a ground contacting surface 10, on the ground contacting surface 10 of the tread portion in a straight advancing and ground contacting state, both ends 13i, 13o in the tire circumferential direction of the main portion 13 are positioned outward beyond the ground contacting surface 10. The land ratio between the ground contacting ends 10t, 10t in a tire axial direction in the straight advancing and ground contacting state is 75 to 95%. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
