BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an assembly of a tire and a rim for a motorcycle having both traveling performance and puncture resistance, and is particularly suitable for a motorcycle which travels on an off-road having severe unevenness such as a garbage field. Regarding what can be adopted.

2. Description of the Related Art Motorcycles for so-called off-road running on uneven terrain are mainly driven only on paved on-roads due to severe road conditions and running conditions. The puncture occurrence rate of the tire is remarkably high in comparison.

[0003] Such a puncture is particularly caused when a tire is locally deformed due to unevenness of the road surface, in addition to cuts penetrating through the tire bore, especially when traveling on uneven roads such as rubble and rocks, thereby causing a tube inside the tire. In a motocross race or the like, when the vehicle lands after jumping, the tires are locally deformed regardless of the road surface condition and pinch the tube to cause damage to the tube.

[0004] In order to solve this problem, in the case of a motorcycle tire running on uneven terrain, the rubber gauge of the tire and the gauge of the tube are increased, and a cushioning material (mousse) such as urethane is used instead of the tube. There has been proposed a method of sealing and filling almost the entire area of the lumen, and a combination of a tube that expands by pressurization and a cushioning material that adheres tightly to the tire lumen by the tube.

However, the method of increasing the thickness of the gauge is difficult to employ because the puncture still frequently occurs during off-road running and the steering stability and ride comfort are greatly reduced.

[0006] In the case where a cushioning material is sealed and filled almost all over the bore of the tire in place of the tube, the puncture itself can be eliminated, but since the load is supported only by the cushioning material, various cushioning materials corresponding to each tire are required. In addition to having to prepare the cushioning material, the cushioning material must be considerably compressed and attached to the tire, making it extremely difficult to assemble the rim. There is a problem that it is easily destroyed.

[0007] In this respect, the combination of the tube and the buffer can solve the above-mentioned difficulty in assembling the rim. However, the combination of the tube and the buffer due to the impact at the time of traveling on an uneven road surface or the like. There is a new problem that the friction generated at the contact surface with the shock absorber makes it particularly easy for the contact surface of the tube to be thermally damaged.
