Tires

Tires are the only contact between the
vehicle and the road. Safety in all con-
ditions of riding depends on a relatively
small area of road contact. Therefore, it
is essential to maintain the tires in good
condition at all times and replace them
at the appropriate time with the speci-
fied tires.
Tire air pressure
The tire air pressure should be
checked and, if necessary, adjusted
before each ride.
WARNING
Operation of this vehicle with im-
proper tire pressure may cause se-
vere injury or death from loss of
control.
 The tire air pressure must be
checked and adjusted on cold
tires (i.e., when the temperature
of the tires equals the ambient
temperature).
 The tire air pressure must be
adjusted in accordance with the
weight of the rider, the riding
speed, and the riding condi-
tions.
Standard tire air pressure:
Front:
100 kPa (1.00 kgf/cm², 15 psi)
