Abstract: A motorcycle tyre, comprising a radial carcass structure (2) and a tread band (8) applied at a radially outer position with respect to the radial carcass structure (2), wherein the radial carcass structure (2) comprises a first carcass ply (3a) and a second carcass ply (3b) including a first plurality of textile reinforcing cords (30) and a second plurality of textile reinforcing cords (32), respectively, wherein the first textile reinforcing cords (31) are parallel to each other and the second textile reinforcing cords (33) are parallel to each other and have a respective first and second inclination at a crown portion (8c) of the tread band (8) with respect to an equatorial plane (X-X) of the tyre, wherein said second inclination is opposite to said first inclination. The first textile reinforcing cords (31) and the second textile reinforcing cords (33) have a tenacity comprised between 0.35 cN/Tex and 1.2 cN/Tex at 2% elongation and comprised between 0.5 cN/Tex and 3 cN/Tex at 5% elongation.
