Tyres - Ducati SPORTCLASSIC PAUL SMART 1000 LIMITED EDITION 2006 Owner's Manual

Tyres

Front tyre pressure:
2.2 bar
Rear tyre pressure:
2.2 bar
As tyre pressure is affected by temperature and altitude
variations, you are advised to check and adjust it whenever
you are riding in areas where ample variations in
temperature or altitude occur.
Important
Check and set tyre pressure when tyres are cold.
To avoid front wheel rim distortion, when riding on bumpy
roads, increase tyre pressure by 0.2 - 0.3 bar.
Tyre repair or replacement
In the event of a tiny puncture, tube tyres tend to deflate
rapidly, as air will escaple quickly. If you find low pressure
on one tyre, check the tyre for punctures.
Warning
In the event of a puncture, change tyre and tube.
Replace tyres and tubes with recommended standard
tyres and tubes only. Be sure to tighten the valve caps
securely to avoid leaks when riding. Never use tubeless
tyres. Failure to heed this warning may lead to loss of
pressure and to serious danger to rider.
After replacing tyre and tube, the wheel must be balanced.
Important
Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing weights.
Note
Have tyres and tubes replaced at a Dealer or
Authorised Workshop to ensure correct removal and
installation of the wheels.
