6.9. Checking and replacing the tires
WARNING
Before using the motorcycle, always
check the pressure and wear of the
tires. The tire air pressure must be
checked and adjusted on cold tires.
Checking the air pressure of each tire is an
essential requirement to ensure driving safety.
Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure
recommended by the tire manufacturer. Refer to
the pressures given in § 8.2. or on the label
applied to the steering head tube. In the event of
long rides, you can increase the face value of the
tire pressure by 0.2 bar (0.014 psi).
Excessive tire pressure reduces grip on the road
and increases the risk that the tire will unexpec-
tedly burst. Inflation pressure that is too low redu-
ces tire performance and increases the probability
of detachment of the tire from the rim, resulting in
sudden and unexpected loss of tire pressure.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure can result in loss
of control of the motorcycle, an acci-
dent, personal injury or death.
