Motorcycle tires are the most easily overlooked component
Motorcycle tires are the most easily overlooked component, which directly affects the handling performance, driving comfort, driving quality, and overall safety performance of the vehicle.
There are two basic types of tire structures: diagonal tires and radial tires. According to safety knowledge, most cruise motorcycles use diagonal tires, while most sports motorcycles use radial tires; Spoke type wheel tires require an inner tube, while cast hub type wheel tires do not require the use of an inner tube; The oblique line structure of the tire has a relatively circular contour, and the tire sidewall is also higher; The radial structure of the tire has a flatter contour and a shorter sidewall. The ply layer of the tire body under the crown of a diagonal tire is composed of multiple layers of nylon and artificial silk, and the different ply layers stretch the tire at opposite angles to form an X-shaped structure - the reason for naming a diagonal tire.
Some tires will add an additional layer of belt at the top of the ply, which will run along the direction of tire rolling. During the rolling process of a tire, a small part of it that comes into contact with the ground will flatten in an instant and then bounce back to its original state, which is called the driving surface - the change in which the tire repeatedly flattens and bounces back to its original state during driving. The heat generated by the continuous bending deformation of the tire is very beneficial for the tire's grip performance, but if excessive bending deformation produces too much heat, it will reduce the tire's grip performance and accelerate tire damage. The direction of the radial tire ply is perpendicular to the rolling direction of the tire, which is beneficial for reducing the heat generated by the tire's deflection deformation, thereby keeping the tire at a lower temperature during operation; Due to the greater tendency of radial tires to deform and deform, the tire profile is shorter. The low profile structure of radial tires indicates that they can carry more loads, making them more suitable for cruising motorcycles that require heavy loads of passengers or luggage; Diagonal tires are more suitable for meeting the suspension and turning performance requirements of cruise motorcycles. In view of this, before purchasing motorcycle tires, you must confirm whether they are suitable for your motorcycle. For diagonal and radial tires, the design of the tread pattern grooves on the tire crown varies depending on the potential use of the tire. The grooves on the tire crown are mainly used to discharge water from the driving surface of the tire. The more grooves on the tire crown pattern, the better the drainage performance of the tire. Usually, cruise and tourist vehicles need to be driven frequently in rainwater, so their tires need to have high drainage performance; Sports motorcycles are not designed for rain driving, so the fewer grooves on the tire crown, the more rubber the tire contacts the ground, which ensures that the tire obtains greater traction when driving on dry ground.
