Abstract: A motorcycle tire comprises a tread portion provided with a block pattern. The block pattern comprises block groups each consisting of at least five blocks Bg arranged along an oblique zone x so that the centroids m of the treads of the blocks Bg are positioned within the oblique zone X. The oblique zone x has a width of not more than 4 mm. The oblique zone x is inclined at an angle ? of from 1 to 10 degrees with respect to the tire circumferential direction.

Abstract: An off-road tire for motorcycle comprises a tread portion provided with a plurality of blocks including an axially outmost shoulder block, a pair of sidewall portions, and a pair of bead portions, the shoulder block comprising a tread face with an axially outer edge corresponding to a tread edge and a lateral face extending from the tread edge to an radially inner edge located on the sidewall portion, the lateral face with a swelling portion swelling axially outside of the tire than a reference line which connects the tread edge and the radially inner edge, in a cross section including a tire axis, and the radial height of the radially inner edge of the lateral face from the bead base line being in a range of from 30 to 50% of the tire section height.

Abstract: An off-road tire (1) comprises a tread portion (2) provided with blocks (10, 11) forming a sea area (8) therearound. The sea area (8) is provided in the bottom (14) thereof with recesses (13), wherein the recesses (13) are arranged circumferentially of the tire and each extend axially of the tire, and the depth (d) of each of the recesses (13) is gradually increased towards its center (13a), whereby the enveloping power is improved.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire having an improved off-road traveling performance, which has a block pattern that a plurality of blocks 7 are provided in a tread portion, in which each of the blocks 7 includes a tread surface 9 facing radially outward and a wall surface 10 extending radially inwardly from the edge “e” of the tread surface 9, and at least one of the blocks 7 is provided with at least one recess portion 11 which extends on the wall surface 10 in the radial direction, and whose radially outer end opens at the tread surface 9 and whose length L along the wall surface 10 is from 10 to 70% of the height BL of the blocks 7.

Abstract: To improve straight running stability on an off-road. An off-road pneumatic tire 1, which has on a tread portion 2 at least one block row 10 comprising a plural of blocks 9 arranged in the tire circumferential direction. The block row 10 includes a center block row 10A composed of center blocks 11 arranged on the tire equator C. Each of the center blocks 11 comprises a lateral-long block main portion 11a having a width BW in the tire axial direction larger than the length BL in the tire circumferential direction, and a keel portion 11b prepared integrally on the rear side of the block main portion 11a in the tire rotational direction and projecting with a small width toward the rear side in the tire rotational direction.

Abstract: An off-road tire for motorcycle comprises a tread portion provided with a plurality of blocks including an axially outmost shoulder block, a pair of sidewall portions, and a pair of bead portions, the shoulder block comprising a tread face with an axially outer edge corresponding to a tread edge and a lateral face extending from the tread edge to an radially inner edge located on the sidewall portion, the lateral face with a swelling portion swelling axially outside of the tire than a reference line which connects the tread edge and the radially inner edge, in a cross section including a tire axis, and the radial height of the radially inner edge of the lateral face from the bead base line being in a range of from 30 to 50% of the tire section height.
