Tread pattern selection for motorcycle tires

The tread pattern is still an important indicator to determine the performance of the tire. The shape of the tread pattern determines its ability to drain water and discharge other sundries, and also affects its grip performance. Therefore, it is very important to choose a suitable tread pattern. There are dozens of tread patterns for tires of the same specification. Generally, the appropriate tread pattern should be selected according to the actual situation of the motorcyclists.

If you often drive on mountainous, muddy, snowy, icy roads and other roads, you should choose off-road tires with wide tire grooves and deep groove patterns, because the tire grooves are deep and wide, and under the rotation of the wheels, due to The effect of centrifugal force is beneficial to displace water and other sundries, so that the tires can better contact with the ground.

If you often drive on the road, you should choose tires with submerged and tight grooves. This kind of tire has a large contact area with the ground when driving on the road to ensure driving safety. If you race on the track, you can choose slick tires (no tread pattern). The slick tires need to be warmed up in advance, and the grip will be greatly improved after reaching the normal working temperature of the tires.
