Provided is a technology for inhibiting the occurrence of uneven wear at shoulder-side edges of blocks in a motorcycle tire having a block pattern. A motorcycle tire (100) includes plural blocks (11) and (12) that are arranged on a tread ground-contact surface. In a tire widthwise cross-section of a tread portion (1), when regions obtained by bisecting a tread half-width region measured along the tire surface from a tire equator CL to a tread ground-contact end TE are each defined as a tread center portion Tc and a tread shoulder portion Ts, a middle block (12) among the plural blocks, whose outer wall surface (12A) on the tire width-direction outer side is positioned in the tread shoulder portion Ts, is configured such that an upper end portion is chamfered only for the outer wall surface (12A) and a chamfered part (12B) is thereby formed on the middle block (12).
