2-18 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
TIRES
Inspect
every 2 000 km (1 200 miles, 6 months).
TIRE
TREAD CONDITION
Operating the vehicle
with
excessively worn tires
will
decrease
riding
stability and consequently invite
a
dangerous situation.
It
is
highly recommended
to
replace
a
tire
when the remaining
depth of the
tire
tread reaches the following specification.
IT55LI
09900-20805: Tire depth gauge
EE553
Service
Limit
Tire tread depth: Front 4.0 mm (0.16 in)
Rear
4.0 mm (0.16 in)
TIRE
PRESSURE
If
the
tire
pressure
is too
high
or too
low, steering
will
be
adversely affected and
tire
wear
will
increase. Therefore, main-
tain
the correct
tire
pressure for good roadability and
a
longer
tire
life.
Cold

tire
pressure is as follows.

A CAUTION
To
minimize the possibility of tire damage from over-
inflation, we strongly recommended that a manual
type air pump be used rather than a high pressure air
compressor
as found in service stations. When filling
air
into the tires, never exceed 70 kPa (0.7 kgf/cm
2
, 10
psi).
A CAUTION
The
standard tire
fitted
on this vehicle is a AT25 8-
12## for the front and a AT25x10-12f?t? for the rear.
The
use of tires other than those specified may
cause
instability. It is highly recommended to use the
speci-
fied tires.
