MOTORCYCLE TYRE AND PAIR OF MOTORCYCLE TYRES

摘要

A motorcycle tyre (100) has a tread band (8) comprising a central portion (A) and two shoulder portions (B) arranged at axially opposite sides of the central portion (A). The central portion (A) comprises a first plurality of grooves (20) extended according to a substantially longitudinal direction and alternatively arranged at opposite sides of the equatorial plane (X- X) of the tyre. Each groove of said first plurality of grooves has a substantially curvilinear course such as to form a concavity. The central portion further comprises a sub-portion substantially free of grooves placed astride the equatorial plane (X-X) of said tyre. Each of the shoulder portions comprises a second plurality of grooves (21, 26) arranged obliquely relative to the equatorial plane of the tyre. A pair of tyres (a front and a rear tyre of a motorcycle) having the features mentioned above is also claimed.
