More Regarding Choosing and Maintaining Motorcycle Tires
For those that ride on the road, a standard sport tire will usually provide what is needed to ride safely, while at the same time offering decent performance. You may see racing tires for sale and think that you would like to have these, however be aware that racing tires wear out much faster, so if you're not actually doing any racing, a racing tire isn't worth the extra expense. If you are into racing (legally) you will certainly want to get the most out of your tires and buy a motorcycle tire that is made for this purpose.
If you tend to ride your bike in wet seasons you will want to purchase a motorcycle tire that has softer rubber and is known for it's traction. The soft rubber will provide better traction on wet surfaces, which is integral if you are riding in the rain. Unfortunately these tires do have a downside in that they wear more quickly because of the soft rubber and they will take longer to warm up, which can cause for some tricky driving until they heat up.
For those that use their motorcycle as their main method of transportation on a daily basis, a firm tire that offers durability and will last many miles will be your first choice.
As for tire size, make sure to get the correct size of tire for your bike. Deviating away from the manufacturers recommended tire size can cause undesirable handing issues or they will not be usable at all. Often times riders will want to put a wider tire on their motorcycle, thinking that it will improve performance, but this simply is not true. A wider tire may look cool, but it's going to make your bike a handle more awkwardly.
Don't be afraid to spend a few extra dollars getting the perfect tires for your needs. No matter which tire you end up buying, make sure to maintain them. Proper tire pressure is integral both to the safe operation of you motorcycle, but also to maximizing the life of the tire. When properly maintained you will notice that they last much longer and they handle better, not to mention providing better gas mileage. While this may not always be a big concern for motorcycle riders, in these tough economic times, prolonging the life of your tires and saving a few dollars in fuel is certainly a welcome benefit.
