  • Publication number: 20080216930
    Abstract: This invention relates to a tyre, particularly a motorcycle tyre having a high camber rubber tread which contains a central internal circumferential rubber stabilization element, or bar, which extends to and is a part of the running surface of the tyre tread and a plurality of additional spaced apart internal circumferential rubber stabilization bars, positioned within the tread outer cap rubber layer of which one or more may optionally be a part of the running surface of the tyre tread. In one embodiment, segments of the tread's outer cap rubber layer are substantially separated from each other, and may be thereby substantially dynamically de-coupled from each other, by one or more of said circumferential rubber stabilizer bars which extend radially outward into said outer tread cap rubber layer from an underlying tread base rubber layer.
