Tyres

To safely operate your motorcycle, the tyres must be
the proper type (off-road) and size, in good condition
with adequate tread, and correctly inflated.
WARNING
!
Using tyres that are excessively worn or improperly
inflated can cause a crash in which you can be
seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner's manual
regarding tyre inflation and maintenance.
Air Pressure
Properly inflated tyres provide the best combination of
handling, tread life, and riding comfort. Generally,
underinflated tyres wear unevenly, adversely affect
handling, and are more likely to fail from being
overheated. Underinflated tyres can also cause wheel
damage in rocky terrain.
Overinflated tyres make your motorcycle ride more
harshly, are more prone to damage from surface
hazards, and wear unevenly.
Make sure the valve stem caps are secure.
If necessary, install a new cap.
Always check air pressure when your tyres are "cold"
when the motorcycle has been parked for at least
three hours. If you check air pressure when your tyres
are "warm" when the motorcycle has been ridden for
even a few miles the readings will be higher than if the
tyres were "cold". This is normal, so do not let air out
of the tyres to match the recommended cold air
pressures given below. If you do, the tyres will be
underinflated.
The recommended "cold" tyre pressures are:
