Important Safety Reminders:
Cast Wheels
Do not install a tube inside a tubeless
tire on this motorcycle. Excessive heat
build-up can cause the tube to burst.
Use only tubeless tires on this
motorcycle. The rims are designed for
tubeless tires, and during hard
acceleration or braking, a tube-type tire
could slip on the rim and cause the tire
to rapidly deflate.
Do not install a bias-ply tire on this
motorcycle. Mixing bias-ply and radial
tires can adversely affect handling and
stability.
Important Safety Reminders:
Spoke Wheels
Do not install a radial tire on this
motorcycle. Mixing bias-ply and radial
tires can adversely affect handling and
stability.
Do not install car tires on this
motorcycle. During installation the tire
may separate from the rim with enough
force to cause serious injury or death.
