Motorcycle Tyres – Simple Guide

Your tyres are the only things connecting your bike to the road. The right ones make a big difference to grip, handling, safety and how long they last.

Main Types of Motorcycle Tyres

  • Sport – Maximum grip for aggressive road or track riding. Wear out faster.
  • Sport-Touring – Good all-round choice for most riders. Strong grip with decent lifespan.
  • Touring – Built for long distance, comfort and high mileage.
  • Adventure / Dual-Sport – For mixed road and off-road use.
  • Off-Road – Knobbly tyres for dirt and trails (not ideal for long road trips).

Understanding Tyre Sizes

A typical size looks like 120/70 ZR 17.

  • 120 = width (mm)
  • 70 = sidewall height
  • 17 = rim size (inches)

Always fit the size recommended by your bike’s manufacturer.

Choosing Tyres

Match the tyre to how and where you ride:

  • Daily commuting or touring → Sport-Touring or Touring
  • Fast road/track days → Sport
  • Adventure riding → Dual-Sport

Tyre Pressure & Care

  • Check pressures when the tyres are cold.
  • Use the pressures shown in your bike’s handbook (they often change when carrying a passenger or luggage).
  • Inspect regularly for cuts, cracks, embedded stones and uneven wear.
  • Keep an eye on tread depth and the wear indicators in the grooves.

When to Replace Tyres

Change them when:

  • Tread is getting low
  • Sidewalls are cracked or damaged
  • Grip feels reduced
  • The tyre is several years old (rubber hardens over time even if it still has tread)

Quick Safety Tips

  • New tyres need a short bedding-in period — ride carefully for the first 100–200 km.
  • Cold weather reduces grip, especially on performance tyres.

Looking after your tyres is one of the easiest ways to stay safer and get better performance from your motorcycle.
