Periodic maintenance and adjustment
Minimum tire tread depth (front and
rear):
1.0 mm (0.04 in)
WARNING
 It is dangerous to ride with a
worn-out tire. When a tire tread
begins to show crosswise lines,
have a Yamaha dealer replace
the tire immediately.
 The replacement of all wheel-
and brake-related parts, includ-
ing the tires, should be left to a
Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional knowl-
edge and experience to do so.
 Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire
surface must first be "broken
in" for it to develop its optimal
characteristics.
Tire information
1. Tire air valve
2. Tire air valve core
3. Tire air valve cap with seal
This model is equipped with tubeless
tires and tire air valves.
Tires age, even if they have not been
used or have only been used occasion-
ally. Cracking of the tread and sidewall
rubber, sometimes accompanied by
carcass deformation, is an evidence of
ageing. Old and aged tires shall be
checked by tire specialists to ascertain
their suitability for further use.
EWA10582
WARNING
 The front and rear tires should
be of the same make and de-
sign, otherwise the handling
characteristics of the motorcy-
cle may be different, which
could lead to an accident.
 Always make sure that the valve
caps are securely installed to
prevent air pressure leakage.
 Use only the tire valves and
valve cores listed below to
avoid tire deflation during a ride.
