This motorcycle is fitted with "V" range tires
(for super high speed running). The following
points must be observed in order for you to
make fully effective use of these tires.
fail to use "V" range tires in tire re-
placement; "S" or "H" tires may be in danger
of bursting a t super high-speeds.
tires have a relatively poor adhesion
on the road surface so do not allow them to
be subjected to high speed load from maximum
speed until after a break-in run of approx.
100 km (60 mi).
any high-speed runs, remember to allow
a sufficient warm-up time for the tires.
use the correct tire inflation pressure
according to the operation conditions.
