Two-wheeled vehicle tire
A two-wheeled vehicle tire achieves a further improvement particularly in the traction performance during turning on soft ground. A two-wheeled vehicle tire includes a tread portion formed in an annular shape. The tread portion includes: center land portions arranged on a tire equator CL; middle land portions arranged on the tire width-direction outer side of the center land portions; and shoulder land portions arranged on the tire width-direction outer side of the middle land portions, and T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions each constituted by three partial land portions connected at one end are arranged between the center land portions and the shoulder land portions.
1. A two-wheeled vehicle tire, comprising a tread portion formed in an annular shape,
wherein,
the tread portion comprises: center land portions arranged on a tire equator; middle land portions arranged on the tire width-direction outer side of the center land portions; and shoulder land portions arranged on the tire width-direction outer side of the middle land portions, and
T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions, wherein:
the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are each constituted by three partial land portions connected at one end,
the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are arranged between the center land portions and the shoulder land portions,
a top face of the T-shaped land portions is flat and has a T-shape and a top face of the Y-shaped land portions is flat and has a Y-shape,
the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are arranged at a lower height than all of the center land portions, the middle land portions and the shoulder land portions,
the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are different land portions with a different top surface from the middle land portions, and
all of the T-shaped and Y-shaped land portions are arranged only between the middle land portions in a tire circumferential direction.
2. The two-wheeled vehicle tire according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of the three partial land portions of the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions extend at an angle with respect to both the tire circumferential direction and the tire width direction.
3. The two-wheeled vehicle tire according to claim 2 , comprising a section in which the middle land portions and the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are alternately arranged in the tire circumferential direction.
4. The two-wheeled vehicle tire according to claim 1 , comprising a section in which the middle land portions and the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are alternately arranged in the tire circumferential direction.
5. The two-wheeled vehicle tire according to claim 1 , wherein the middle land portions and the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are alternately arranged along the tire circumferential direction.
6. The two-wheeled vehicle tire according to claim 1 , wherein the middle land portions and the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions are alternately arranged in the tire circumferential direction, and V-shaped land portions are arranged in place of the T-shaped or Y-shaped land portions in at least one part along the tire circumferential direction.
