Tires
WARNING
Operating the motorcycle with improper tires or with improper or uneven tire pressure could cause loss
of control or accident. Always use the correct size and type of tires specified for your vehicle. Always
maintain proper tire pressure as recommended in the rider's manual and on safety labels.
Tire Pressure
Always check and adjust tire pressure when tires are cold. Do not adjust tire pressure
immediately after riding. Wait at least 3 hours after riding to check pressure. If pressure
checked and adjusted while tires are warm, the pressure will drop as tires cool and result in
underinflation. Adjust tire pressure as recommended for the total weight of your intended
load (see table).
WARNING! Do not exceed the maximum recommended inflation pressure to seat the bead. Tire or rim
failure may result.

Tire Condition
Inspect the tire sidewalls, road contact surface and tread base. If inspection reveals cuts,
punctures, cracks or other wear or damage, replace the tire before riding. Use only approved
replacement tires.
Tire Tread Depth
Replace any tire with a tread depth of less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm).
Tread wear indicators are located in at least six places on the tread circumference and
become visible at a tread depth of approximately 1/16 inch (1.6 mm). The tread wear
indicators appear as a solid band across the tread.
You may also use a depth gauge or an accurate ruler to measure the depth of the center tire
tread on both front and rear tires.
