Maintenance

Check Tire Condition

Inspect the tire sidewalls, road contact surface, and tread base for cuts, punctures, and cracking. Replace
damaged tires immediately (see your Victory Service Manual or an authorized Victory dealer).

Check Tread Depth

Raised areas at the base of the tread, known as wear bars; act as
easily visible tread depth indicators. When the road contact
surface has worn to the top of the wear bars, replace the tire.
For more precise measurement, use a depth gauge or an
accurate ruler to measure the depth of the center tire tread.
Replace the tire if the tread depth is less than 1/16 inch
(1.6 mm).

Check Wheel Spokes

Inspect both wheels for loose, bent, broken, or missing spokes. To identify loose spokes, grasp each spoke and
try to move it side to side or up and down. All spokes should be equally tight and have the same amount of
flex. Tighten loose spokes or replace bent, broken, or missing spokes (see an authorized Victory dealer).
WARNING
Spokes adjusted or replaced improperly could distort the wheel, making the motorcycle difficult to
handle and cause you to lose control of the motorcycle.
