A motorcycle tire set includes a front-wheel tire and a rear-wheel tire. Each of the front and rear-wheel tires includes a carcass, a band layer arranged radially outwardly of the carcass in the tread portion, and a tread rubber arranged radially outwardly of the band layer. The carcass includes a carcass ply including carcass cords. The band layer includes a jointless band ply in which a band cord is circumferentially wound spirally at an angle equal to or less than 5 degrees. The tread rubber includes a crown rubber portion. An angle θ1 of the carcass cords of the front-wheel tire is 65 degrees or more with respect to the tire circumferential direction. A rubber hardness of the crown rubber portion of the rear-wheel tire is greater than a rubber hardness of the crown rubber portion of the front-wheel tire.
