TIRE CONDITION AND TYPE
Proper tire condition and proper tire
type affect vehicle performance. Cuts
or cracks in the tires can lead to tire
failure and loss of vehicle control.
Worn tires are susceptible to puncture
failures and subsequent loss of vehi-
cle control. Tire wear also affects the
tire profile, changing vehicle handling
characteristics.
Check the condition of your tires each
day before you ride. Replace tires if
tires show visual evidence of damage,
such as cracks or cuts, or if tread
depth is less than 1.6 mm (0.06 in)
front, 2.0 mm (0.08 in) rear.
NOTE: The "
place where the wear bars are
molded into the tire. When the wear
bars contact the road, it indicates that
the tire wear limit has been reached.
When you replace a tire, be sure to
replace it with a tire of the size and
type listed below. If you use a different
size or type of tire, vehicle handling
may be adversely affected, possibly
resulting in loss of vehicle control.

Be sure to balance the wheel after
repairing a puncture or replacing the
tire. Proper wheel balance is impor-
tant to avoid variable wheel-to-road
contact, and to avoid uneven tire
wear.
