Tires - EBR 1190RS 2013 Owner's Manual

TIRES

Keep the tires properly inflated. Check tire pressure be-
fore riding when tires are cold.
Be sure tires are properly inflated, balanced and
have adequate tread. Inspect your tires regularly and
see an EBR dealer for replacements. Riding with ex-
cessively worn, unbalanced or under inflated tires
can adversely affect stability and handling, which
could result in death or serious injury.
Check inflation pressure and inspect tread for punctures,
cuts, breaks, etc. Inspect at least weekly if in daily use
or before each trip if used only occasionally.
Refer to Table 11 for tire pressures and sizes.
Match tires, air valves and caps to the correct wheel
rim. Contact an EBR dealer. Mismatching can result
in damage to the tire bead, allow tire slippage on the
rim, or cause tire failure, which could result in seri-
ous injury or death.

Replace worn tires with new tires identical to those that
came on the motorcycle as original equipment. Other
tires may not fit correctly or may be hazardous to use.
Tires are a critical safety component. Contact an
EBR dealer for tire repair or replacement. Improper
tire service can adversely affect stability and han-
dling, which could result in death or serious injury.
Replace punctured or damaged tires. In some cases,
small punctures in the tread may be repaired from
within the demounted tire by an EBR dealer. Speed
should NOT exceed 50mph (80 km/h) for the first 24
hours after the repair, and the repaired tire should
NEVER be used over 80 MPH (130 km/h). Failure to
follow this warning could result in death or serious
injury.
