What do the numbers on motorcycle tires represent?
1 Answers
The numbers on motorcycle tires represent the tire width, tire height, radial tire, rim diameter, speed limit, and load capacity. The meaning of motorcycle tire numbers: The numbers indicate the specific dimensions of the tire. Qualified motorcycle tires must be marked with the tire manufacturer, tire name, tire size, type, load index, speed symbol, arrow indicating the tire rotation direction, certification marks of various countries, and country of origin. The function of motorcycle tire numbers: Even if tires look identical, if their numbers differ, their load capacities will vary. Therefore, tires with different number markings should not be used on the same axle, as this could pose a danger during high-speed driving under load.
