Low Tire Pressure Indicator - Honda 2009 GOLDWING GL1800 Owner's Manual

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Low Tire Pressure Indicator

If the low tire pressure indicator flashes, check your tires as soon as possible.
If the low tire pressure indicator lights constantly, one or more of your tires is
significantly underinflated. You should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible. For more information on temporary repair, see If You Have a Flat Tire

on page .
Check the air pressure when the tires are cold. This means the motorcycle has
been parked for at least 3 hours. Add or release air, if needed, to match the
recommended cold tire pressures on page 190 .
When the low tire pressure indicator flashes or lights, but you continue to ride,
the low tire pressure indicator will go off in some cases. It is still necessary to
check the air pressures of both tires after the tires cool. Air in the tires is
expanded with heat.
If the low tire pressure indicator does not turn off after inflating the tires to the
specified values, have your Honda dealer to check the system as soon as
possible.
Riding on a underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the motorcycle's handling and stopping ability.
