A motorcycle tire includes crown blocks including first crown blocks and second crown blocks. Each of the first crown blocks has a heel-side edge formed in a V-shape and inclined at an angle α of 10 degrees or less on both axial sides with respect to the tire axial direction. A total number of the first crown blocks is 30% or more of a total number of the crown blocks. A first ground contacting surface shape of each of the first crown blocks has a maximum length in the tire axial direction from 60% to 70% of a tread width. Each of the second crown blocks has a second ground contacting surface shape having a maximum length in the tire axial direction smaller than the maximum length of the first ground contacting surface shape of each of the first crown blocks.
