A pneumatic tire for a front wheel of a motorcycle comprises a pair of bead cores, a radial carcass toroidally extending between the pair of bead portions, a belt disposed on a radially outer surface of the carcass, and a tread portion disposed thereon, wherein the carcass is comprised of at least one carcass ply containing organic fiber cords, and the belt is a spiral belt layer formed by spirally winding a continuous rubberized cord or a continuous ribbon-shaped body containing plural cords therein in a widthwise direction of the tire, and the tread portion has a two-layer structure comprised of a cap rubber layer and a base rubber layer in at least a central region in the widthwise direction of the tire, or a reinforcing layer is disposed inside an innermost carcass ply or on an inner surface of an innerliner, or the bead core is a helically wound laminate of a single steel wire having a polygonal shape at a section of the bead core in the radial direction.
A pneumatic front wheel motorcycle tire comprising a pair of bead cores embedded in a pair of bead portions, a carcass toroidally extending between the pair of bead portions and wound around the bead core from an inside of the tire toward an outside thereof, a belt disposed on an outer surface of a crown portion of the carcass in a radial direction of the tire, and a tread portion disposed on an outer surface of the belt in the radial direction, wherein the carcass is comprised of at least one carcass ply containing organic fiber cords arranged at a cord angle of 60-90° with respect to an equatorial plane of the tire, and the belt is a spiral belt layer formed by spirally winding a continuous rubberized cord or a continuous ribbon-shaped body containing plural cords therein in a widthwise direction of the tire so as to extend the cord substantially in a circumferential direction of the tire, and at least one reinforcing layer, each being symmetric with respect to the equatorial plane and disposed on the inside and directly adjacent an innermost carcass ply or on an inner surface of an innerlinner, having a width corresponding to 20-120% of a width of the spiral belt layer and is a rubber layer and or a rubberized cord layer.
