Tire Size Code Explained
Motorcycle tires may seem difficult to figure out at
first. Here is a simple guide to unlocking the information on the sidewall of
you motorcycle tires. You will see a sequence of numbers and letter codes on
your sidewall (i.e. 130/90HB-16) These numbers stand for is the tire width,
aspect ratio, speed rating, construction type and rim diameter.
For instance, the 130 stands for 130mm of tread width. The
90 stands for the aspect ratio (sidewall height) which is a percentage, so for a
130/90 the aspect ratio/sidewall is 90% of the tread width or 117mm.
The next number (speed rating) determines what speed, that
this tire is designed to be safely operated. In this example, the H speed
rating means that tire has a maximum speed rating of 130 MPH. V-rated tires have
a maximum speed rating of 149MPH and Z-rated is 149+MPH. This doesn’t mean it
is ok to break the speed limit, it simply means the manufacturer has certified
that tire to be capable of those speeds.
The next letter designation stands for the construction of
the tire itself. In this example, the B stands for Bias construction, meaning
the tire is a bias ply, not a radial. You will see an R in this place if the
tire is of radial construction.
Last but not least is the rim diameter. You couldn’t very
well stretch a 16 tire on a 18 inch rim, so it’s important to you to know what
size rim your dealing with when replacing tires. Alamo Cycle Plex now performs tire replacement for any make of motorcycle or ATV. Please contact our Parts or Service Department for a price quote.
