Tyres
This motorcycle is equipped with spoked
wheels which require a tyre suitable for
use with an inner tube.
WARNING
Failure to use an inner tube in a
spoked wheel will cause deflation of
the tyre leading to loss of motorcycle
control which could result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING
Inner tubes must only be used on
motorcycles fitted with spoked wheels
and with tyres marked 'TUBE TYPE'.
Some brands of approved tyres
marked 'TUBELESS' may be suitable
for use with an inner tube. Where this
is the case, the tyre wall will be
marked with text permitting the
fitment of an inner tube (see
illustration below).
Use of an inner tube with a tyre
marked 'TUBELESS', and NOT marked
as suitable for use with an inner tube,
or use of an inner tube on an alloy
wheel marked 'SUITABLE FOR
TUBELESS TYRES' will cause deflation
of the tyre.
Failure to follow the advice above may
lead to loss of motorcycle control
which could result in serious injury or
death.
