A motorcycle tire includes a tread having shoulder blocks, and sidewalls. Each shoulder block includes a main portion and an end portion. The main portion is formed by a first crosslinked rubber composition. The end portion and the sidewalls are formed by a second crosslinked rubber composition. JIS-A hardness Ha of the main portion is greater than JIS-A hardness Hb of the end portion and the sidewalls. Difference (Ha−Hb) is greater than or equal to 5, and is not greater than 12. A ratio (H2/H1) of a height H2 from a boundary point Pb between the tread and each sidewall to a boundary point P2 between the main portion and the end portion, relative to a height H1 from the boundary point Pb to an outermost end P1 of a corresponding one of the shoulder blocks in the axial direction, is greater than or equal to 1/3.
