What condition must a motorcycle's tires be in?
- Both tires must be the same model and have the same characteristics.
- The grooves in the tread must have a minimum depth of 1.6 millimeters.
- They must not show blisters, abnormal deformations, or tears.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: They must not show blisters, abnormal deformations, or tears.
The tires on any vehicle, including a motorcycle, must not have blisters, bulges, tears, cracks, or exposed cords. The regulations set a minimum tread depth of 1.6 mm for passenger cars and for vans and trailers up to 3,500 kg, not for motorcycles, and a motorcycle may have different tires at the front and rear.
