Here's some wisdom for choosing new treads. Thousands of engineering hours and hundreds of horsepower count for nothing unless you can put them to the ground. And since motorcycles have half the tires that cars have, we should be twice as conscientious about choosing the right ones. With this guide, making a wise decision is going to be easy. Even before we begin, you could read the recommendation in your owner's manual and find a tire with matching codes. But isn't it better to understand what those codes actually mean? And to anticipate how they will translate into an epic ride? That's the goal of this guide.
