よう組合せたことを特徴とする。Therefore, according to the present invention, as shown in the drawings, it has a tread portion 1, a pair of side wall portions 2 and a beat portion 3, and the carcass cord is 70 ° to the tire circumferential direction. At least one carcass layer 4 arranged at a cord angle of 90 ° and extending from one beat portion to the other beat portion, and at least one twisted cord 5 on the tire radial direction outside the carcass layer. A belt layer 6 of one layer continuously wound at a cord angle of substantially 0 ° with respect to the direction, and the ratio H / Tw of the tire tread width Tw to the tire section height H is 0.75 or less. In the low aspect ratio radial tire for motorcycles, the strength A per twist cord 5 of the belt layer 6 is 30 for the front tire (A F ).
≦ A F ≦ 60 kg, 40 ≦ A R ≦ 90 kg for the rear tire (A R ), and the void ratio B of the belt layer 6 is a front tire and a rear tire (B F , B R ). 20% ≤ B F , B R ≤ 50%, and the following relationship between A F , A R , B F and B R 1500 kg% <A F
× (100-B F) < A R × (100-B R) <7200kg% , characterized in that the combination to establish.
