TIRE PRESSURE AND LOADING
For safe riding, read the owner's man-
ual for information on tire pressures and
selecting tires to use.
Tires heat up when the motorcycle is
traveling, increasing the air pressure.
Accordingly, use the tire gauge when
the tires are cool, before riding, and
check to see if the tires are at the speci-
fied pressure. Adjust to the appropriate
pressure if the value is outside the
specified range. Overloading your tires
can lead to tire failure and loss of vehi-
cle control.
Check tire pressure each day before you
ride, and be sure the pressure is correct
for the vehicle load according to the
chart below.
