Photo captions:

Motorcycle Tires have come a long way since the days of this 1914 Harley-Davidson now on display at the Western Reserve Auto-Aviation Museum in Cleveland. The new Sports Stud tire, for off-road competition, is nearly dwarfed by the vintage street tire.

Goodyear started racing on the right track - its original motorcycle Blue Streak tire was the first ever made specially for racing. A crew at Fourth of July (1914) cycle races in Dodge City, Kan., proudly displays the grand daddy American racing tires and the blue streak, incidentally, was in the middle of the tread.

Occasionally we receive an interesting paper from one of the branch industries of the motorcycle business. The tire and rubber industry has become increasingly harmonious with present day motorcycle activity. The epilogue of the motorcycle tire's history has been virtually absent from the general body of motorcyclists.

Motorcycle racing has been the main testing ground to provide the propellant that has lead to the design of moderm motorcycle tires.

This article, the history of racing tires, is a study of past environment that has lead to the design of today's modern motorcycle tire.
