Motorcycle tires are typically sized such as "120/70" or "160/60". The first number indicates (in MM) the width, which needs to match your rim size. The second number indicates the height of the tire as a proportion of width.

IOW, a "120/70" tire is 120mm wide, and 84mm tall (120 * 70%). A "160/60" is 160mm wide, and 96mm tall (160 * 60%).
