Question 6212

What condition must a motorcycle's tires be in?

  1. Both tires must be the same model and have the same characteristics.
  2. The grooves in the tread must have a minimum depth of 1.6 millimeters.
  3. 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.
