Tires (Inspecting/Replacing)

#

Checking the Air Pressure

Visually inspect your tires and use an air
pressure gauge to measure the air pressure
before each off-road ride and whenever you
return to pavement after riding off-road. If you
only ride on pavement, check the pressure at
least once a month or any time you think the
tires look low. Always check air pressure when
your tires are cold.
If you decide to adjust the tire pressure for a
particular off-road riding condition, make
changes a little at a time.
Maintenance Fundamentals

Inspecting for Damage

Inspecting for Abnormal Wear

Inspect the tires for
cuts, slits, or cracks that
exposes fabric or
cords, or nails or other
foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tire or the tread.
Inspect the tires for
signs of abnormal wear
on the contact surface.
