Side Stand/Ignition Interlock System - Suzuki VZ1500 Owner's Manual

• Do not use an external repair plug to
repair a puncture since the plug may
work loose as a result of the corner-
ing forces experienced by a motor-
cycle tire.
• After repairing a tire, do not exceed
80 km/h (50 mph) for the first 24
hours, 130 km/h (80 mph) thereafter.
This is to avoid excessive heat build-
up which could result in a tire repair
failure and tire deflation.
• Replace the tire if it is punctured in
the sidewall area, or if a puncture in
the tread area is larger than 6 mm (3/
16 in). These punctures cannot be
repaired adequately.
