Maintenance Fundamentals
A WARNING
Installing improper tires on your
scooter can adversely affect handling
and stability, and can cause a crash in
which you can be seriously hurt or
killed.
Always use the size and type of tires
recommended in this owner's manual.
Tire Service life
The service life of your tires is dependent on
many factors, including, but not limited to,
riding habits, road conditions, vehicle loading,
tire air pressure, maintenance history, speed,
and environmental conditions (even when the
tires are not in use).
In addition to your regular inspections and
maintenance, it is recommended that you have
annual inspections performed once the tires
reach 5 years old. It is also recommended that
all tires be removed from service after 1 0 years
from the date of manufacture, regardless of
their condition or state of wear.
The last four digits of the TIN (tire identification
number) indicate the date of manufacture.
