Tire Inflation Pressures

Warning
Incorrect
tire
abnormal tread wear and instability
problems that may lead to loss of
control and an accident.
Under inflation may result in the tire
slipping on, or coming off the rim.
Overinflation will cause instability and
accelerated tread wear.
Both conditions are dangerous as they
may cause loss of control leading to
an accident.
Correct inflation pressure will provide
maximum stability, rider comfort and
tire life. Always check tire pressures
before riding when the tires are cold.
Check tire pressures daily and adjust if
necessary. See the Specification section
for details of the correct inflation
pressures.

Tire Wear

As the tire tread wears down, the tire
becomes more susceptible to punctures
and failure. It is estimated that 90%
of all tire problems occur during the
last 10% of tread life (90% worn). It is
recommended that tires are changed
before they are worn to their minimum
tread depth.
