Tires
Checking tire pressure
Incorrect tire inflation pres-
sure results in poorer hand-
ing characteristics of the motor-
cycle and reduces the life of the
tires.
Ensure proper tire inflation
pressure.
At high road speeds, tire
valves have a tendency to
open as a result of centrifugal
force.
Use valve caps with rubber seals
and screw them on firmly to pre-
vent sudden tire deflation.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Check tire pressures against
data below.
