2. Wheel sizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_sizing

   Off-roading tires may use a different measurement scheme: Tread width × Outside diameter, followed by wheel size (all in inches) – for example 31×10.50R15 (787 mm × 267 mm R380 in metric designation). The size of the wheel, however, is denoted as 8.5 in × 20.0 in (220 mm × 510 mm).

   They were used on the first production motorcycle, the 1894–1897 Hildebrand & Wolfmüller, and have been on nearly all production and special motorcycles ever since. [5] [6] During this period tyre sizes were usually 22 to 28 inches (560 to 710 mm) diameter and 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 to 2 in (38 to 51 mm) wide. [6] A: Typical outer casing of a tyre.

4. Bicycle and motorcycle geometry - Wikipedia

   Wheel flop refers to steering behavior in which a bicycle or motorcycle tends to turn more than expected due to the front wheel "flopping" over when the handlebars are rotated. Wheel flop is caused by the lowering of the front end of a bicycle or motorcycle as the handlebars are rotated away from the "straight ahead" position.

5. Off-road tire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-road_tire

   Off-road cycle tires, colloquially called knobbies, [4] may be found on motocross and enduro motorcycles, ATVs, and mountain bikes. [1] Tires for single-track vehicles and ATVs have a curved profile such that some tread only contacts the ground during turning. Depending on the model of tire, an off-road capable tire may or may not be approved ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_5775

   ISO 5775 is an international standard for labeling the size of bicycle tires and rims. The system used was originally developed by the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO). It is designed to make tire sizing consistent and clear. It replaces overlapping informal systems that ambiguously distinguished between sizes.

7. Types of motorcycles - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_motorcycles

   Compared to road-going motorcycles, off-road machines are lighter and more flexible, typically having long suspension travel, high ground clearance, and are geared higher to provide more torque in off-road situations. [34] Wheels (usually 21" front, 18" rear) [citation needed] have knobby tires, often clamped to the rim with a rim lock. [6] [35]
